bleeds through
a torn veil
of cloud
and falls
onto her skin
pale
and delicately
traced
with shadow
the soft radiance
playing over
her marble flesh
the curve
of her alabaster
neck
and her lips
full
with the bloom
of youth
silverstrummer...

Jordan Busson replied
I’m finding that I enjoy writing more and more: using a handful of words to evoke images and thoughts and feelings from the reader, and the writer. All the feedback I receive encourages me to express myself in writing. Thank you, Cathrine.
