Excellent Ekphrasic free verse Poetry NOOK : Splash by Bucketlist

The couple stood, drinks in hand Arguing in the cool evening air Then their lovers' spat progressed She reached up to smack him He forcefully grabbed her wrist Her glass fell, spilling its liquid A thousand chards of broken glass Glistened in the setting sunlight Jagged edges shrugged off droplets Resembling a roosting flock of birds The glass, just like their love Once bright and warm in hand Had now lost all of it's spirit Author Notes Supplied for the club poetry
