In the winter months, I have to look deep within to find a spark. This week, I discovered a Rainbow Brevity invitation on AllPoetry and liked what I created enough to share it here. If you’re inspired by the artwork, please join me in penning some brevity, 25 words or less. If you post to your own page, be sure to ping it back here, and tag it #petitepen.
Happy Tuesday!
Harvested
Cornucopia eyebrows,
the color of wheat and barley,
frame her black hole eyes.
Two pigment-less portals
scatter the universe
absorbing in return,
my first rainbow.

Thank you kindly, Tom. 💜 I learned recently my eyes are pigment-less, reflecting back the blue light absorbed. Think that might have trigged this one.

Hi K.
Your poem is an experience of what you found out about yourself. How unusual is that. I have never heard of that. This poem for me is just what I see. No reflection on your experience.
This is for me is an Eye with dark depth.
Eye deep and dark.
A harvest above the Eye
Arched and ripe
Eye void of care
A dark hole in the night
Ringed in yellow turquoise
A stare!

I am sorry ‘your plate or mine’ I couldn’t get the page on your sight. I would have liked to have seen it. Sandy.

That’s a fantastic poem. Loved the feel of it, and creating a rainbow, yes, please. Here’s my contribution.
eyes of sight
are feather kind, and are made of loved-
ordinariness by design
creating
a plentitude of darkness
dispelled
by
the magic of light in-kind
Happy weekend, K. 💜
