Indian Kings

 

Forest green bejeweled
with the call of rainbows
bedecked with coloured life.
Each separate, their quality
entwines with leaf and stem.


Still with shadow, expectant
light stitches calm water
as one by one emerald voices
curve into and below, return
to rest before the next dive.

'Forest green bejeweled
with the call of rainbows' - as lush as the scene it describes. Where is it? Can I go too?

Yep, nice poem, last 3 lines I like best, "curve into and below" is striking. To crib, I'd say that the 3rd line - "bedecked with coloured life" is just paraphrasing the first two - and in 10 line poems, every one counts!

Enjoyed this Stella. It manages to be vivid without saying too much and restricting the reader's imagination.
