a million facets, ever-changing
never still, never captured
by eyes or otherwise
~ the kaleidoscope of him only grows ~
holding its secrets close
it flies free, reveling
and she’s left, still wondering
I will forever be left fascinated by kaleidoscopes, and the people who make kaleidoscopes seem simple. This is my attempt at a Puente, a modern poetry form, for dVerse.

Oh wow, so very beautiful! I can really sense the intrigue and fascination throughout this piece. Kaleidoscopes are interesting indeed. My favorite part of this piece was the bridge, a nice and evocative transition to the final stanza. I loved it.

I’m fascinated by kaleidoscopes, too. I like the way that “he” was a kaleidoscope image. A very nice bridge line, and then that final sentence hangs like she’s standing there in amazement, wondering what she’s just seen.
