Her Brush

Her Brush See her brush as it moves,swiftly across the paper Sliding with such charm from place to place filling the paper with so much grace Twisting and turning as the picture unfolds whirling and twirling is the brush she holds Mixing the colours in her own way a fine one indeed on her paper she lay Each colour appears as her elegant brush, touches the paper colour after colour she now sets free slowly revealing an enchanting beauty. Dedicated to my sister Fatima who love to draw and paint. I think you are really good at it and wish you many more successful paintings in the future.

What a lovely tribute to your dear sister! I've often thought of painting or sketching myself, after all, it's just another means of expressing oneself if poetry isn't working... God bless, Keith

Maryam put a period at the end of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd first verse.Line 3& 4 verse 4 / Flies 'cross the paper, with an elegant touch. The poem is rhyming Maryam with the 2nd and 4th lines having end rhyme. EXCELLENT tribute to a dear sister. Light & Love Debbie Guzzi PS Little Nell is to my sister Janet
