Funnily enough, the napo site had a prompt for a palindome as well. So I'm going double-negatives and jinxing early!

The ribbon of magnesium
has a gorgeous gleam
in the crucible
and the fireworks
on new years eve,
in the sky
takes my breath away
and the rainbow, a sparkling silver lining
in a storm
and the sun as the morning dew,
those bits of frost,
softly glitter...
light can be soft after all,
or bright: pretty scenes
the dark cannot give
but still, those holes it burns
in my retinas
I can do without.

When it finally snows here, I'll catch a snowflake and put it in the fridge.
