A Beautiful Painting

That all I had in my heart 
Was all soft spoken by the art
It hurt me a bit as I looked at it 
But it unfolded a picture I had truly never believed!

But I felt the warmth of her feelings 
When my conscience hugged me a little
The blue face dipped in the universe of grief,
I thought would never come out of belief!

Abruptly it revealed to me,
        Everything was fair when you thought it correct!
And the fire below,
Reached the sky…
         That filled it with pure plums of hope!
Could you tell me…
“What the lady in the mirror had in real?”
A pessimist figure, An Optimist mind!
                                              Rashmi Pitre.(copyright)

Rashmi, 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 <-@
