The Crystal Ball
It was clear at first
Then she waved her hand over it
The smoke reflected to the surface
And then alas,
A blue speck,
A tiny blue, glowing org in the center
Growing bigger
And it began radiating a red glow
In a pulse sending out waves into her ball.
And it swirled a little in color
And the paused before the colors shifted again
A black sail
A boat tossed in the wind
A cargo mistake
Captured pirate
Seamen had twins
The vision blurred and alas
As quick as it came it was gone
No longer would the color dance
For they were dissipating
The blue speck had disappeared
And the red glow shadows everything
