Your one-line poem is excellent in every respect--descriptive, and delightful, with appealing inclusion of alliteration and rhyming. It conveys a message about how art can catch our eye and please us.

A very nice sentiment. The poem flows well. The picture goes with words well. The background color is complementary.

Suggestion:

Be careful of connotation. Blush is usually embarrassment or pride. Flush is usually used to connote the same but caused by sickness.
It also refers to toilets and to full. With so many meanings in a short line it can be confusing.
I would suggest, if syllable count is not a concern something like resplendent.

Sorry if I sound picky, but succinct words work best, in my opinion.

Thanks for a good read.

    Thank you for taking the time to review and comment. I understand what you are saying about connotations, but I think the average reader will understand what BRUSH and FLUSH mean here. .

Hello Mystery Writer!
A wonderful one-line poem that, despite its brevity, is rich in visual and emotive imagery.
Reminds me of the meadow behind our home.
How I am longing for spring!

Best Wishes!

This one-line poem, Springtime Miracle, notes that the Maker's mighty hand can fill the world canvas with a stroke. The colors will be bright and the the tone, just right.

Excellent use of the limited format here of just one line of poetry - an expression of the power and love of God for his people and their earthly home
