The Poetess and the Photographer

She’s an artist of word and rhyme He’s an artist of capturing time She weaves lines creating emotion He stills a moment in motion He brings her into focus She likens him to a crocus They dance in monorhyme The lighting is perfectly prime He caresses her with long exposure Her pen bleeds of love and allure He looks for that shot he desires Now she and her muse are on fire His shutter snaps quick progression She alliterates in rapid succession Sunrise paints the sky with colors Inspiring these would-be lovers He’s waited for such perfect light She’s yearned for inspiration to write How fitting they finally meet On the cliffs once walked by Keats Her image fills the frame of his picture As sonnets she pens like scripture They were destined to be together The Poetess and the Photographer.
