Day 4, Poetry Month Ekphrastic Challenge

Inspired by the image, OVP4

Silver Wings

Above, the cerulean shifts
to violet and indigo,

below, limpid blue
becomes green-black,

and,
in the rippling expanse between
a swimming rainbow
with silver wings

becomes a glimmering—
girl, or thing–

where enigmatic stars
and murky undertow meet

here, this vision,
forgotten dreams.

For Paul Brookes’ Poetry Month Ekphrastic Challenge. You can see the art and read the other poems here.
