The Colorist

he Colorist

He searched the shelves of his heat
and discovered hiding there
his poetic palette,
all his colors, true and fair.

He opened the cupboard
where the canvas frames lay
and on an easel began to paint
the shades of his heart's bouquet.

The pastels freely flowed
into a prismatic reflection
of his latent memory
of life's incostantt perfection.

In the painting of his poems,
his memories vividly convey
all the joys and sorrows 
he came to know along his way.

John, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
