The Artist


Heaven plops
blobs of paint
on a quiet morning
like a canvas ready
to receive creation

The still lake
holds up the sky
like a verdant earth
props up the easel

The brush strokes
of the autumn wind
depicts a love story
for a daydreamer
to savour

  2. The photograph is mesmerising and so much like a painting. Also your strokes in the poetical form are enticing. I would love to witness this treasure.
