Shimmer

Muted droplet
External ringlets
Outbreak

Silent explosion
Immensely vibrant
A splatter

A simple wavering
That spreads outward
From within

Torn ripple
Wake up the eyes
To wink

I haven't seen a Prizm in a very long time. They used to be fascinating to see or the effects of their scattering of light was fascinating. Sara K
