Eight-line Poems

Crystal

Crystal

She flicks the glass with a fingernail,
rings out a sound both clear and bright,
a single note that dies reluctantly,
a lone angel voice receding in the air.

She runs a perfect finger round the rim,
it sings with crystal tone extended
and, glass aloft, it fractures light
through honey golden liquid.
