Framed Soul Within their frames, like lovely captured dreams, my art and poems speak of life: green trees, soft azure skies, sun-sparkled winding streams; a field of daisies leaning in the breeze. With paint and words, I often rendezvous, commingling nature's glory with my own; those imageries create a window view thru which my inner joys of life are shown. I stand apart and contemplate my art... recall the tedious, long hours so spent to merge with what dwells deep within my heart. But, always I am filled with the lament... of an observer...never meant to win; forever on the outside looking in. Sandra M. Haight ~3rd Place~ Contest: The Poet's Own Sponsor: Greg Barden Judged: 09/18/2017

A painted sonnet. What better phrase to describe your lovely poem. Favorite line, "of an observer...never meant to win... forever on the outside looking in."

Mrs Sandra, I would guess if your paintings are anything like your poetry, you should have no worries:) Another splendid example of the beauty in your heart.
