Eidolon

Pandora’s box is a black silhouette of trees that border the horizon. Flung wide open a fine spray escapes to stain the sky burnt topaz and rose. Tourmaline watercolour blossoms bleed up grenadine smears that flow into amber smoke and the open indigo beyond. Rose coloured lenses filter the atmosphere and paint the world in shades of strawberry blond. The carmine flood sings a requiem for the day in languid notes of gold and pomegranate tears. Twilight boats cast nets of shadow to gather the radiance, dragging it up to the char blackened lips of night so that she can devour the cherry flavoured light.

    Just to keep up with Indigo and Rose, I\’m going to start referring to myself as "Pomegranate." (I thought about "Amber" or "Carmine," but they aren\’t…um…unique enough.)
     
    So — Pomegranate it is!!
     
    (Take that, Indie!)

    lol Call yourself whatever you like as long as it\’s not "collect" or late for dinner…"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet…"

    There are a lot of free e-book collectives available on the net but I find Project Gutenburg to be one of the best in regards to variety.
     
    @Poopdeck
