very beautiful
very talented
and very sad

“No Makeup” Makeup Look
He burst in laughter
watching her creating
a “no makeup” makeup look
He wanted to say
‘You look beautiful without
all these expensive bottles and palettes’
But the concentration on her face
the brushes moved with her skilled hand
He saw an enthusiastic girl in a craft studio
enjoying creative elaboration
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

Lockdown Freedom
warm sun radiates
through the blue sky
the perfect match of
bitter coffee
and raisin toast
make an irresistible
delight
my mind colours
the day
in happy notes
played in
paradise
imagination gives wings
hovering above
four walls
my spirit leaps
disguised as
a dragonfly
Let's go
outside
in daylight
counting each moment
alive
a gift
of surprise
Limitless
This is written for Vague Souls Unite weekly prompt.
What if, the sky isn't the limit?
When the kite broke off to fly
without the string to guide
flying even higher
beyond sight
Limitless
is its hope
to dance freely
without restriction
let no untrained hand to limit
its eager creativity from breaking free
The Death of A Poet
you were
the assassin of my poetic being
you attacked by slicing a sharp tongue
down the core of my creativity
whatever I inked
post mortem
dripped wasteful words
irretrievable
