poetry speaking

Certain words when you come upon them in a poem signal this is poetic writing.

Well, save me a few revisions! Give me a list of, let's say, the top ten of these devilish words....

Good question. I thought I should to give examples, but didnt. When I spoke the above, the words shard, azure, murmurous, came to mind. Others: ceruleun, susurrous, coruscate. I could probably list twenty, but I think each of us has kind 'detector' for words that are too poetic however beautiful they may be in the poem.
