Notes About The Poem

Abstract Lady

Abstract mystery lady, on the burgundy museum wall,
Eyes in deep shadows, in her green dress at the ball,
Sitting lost in thought, of what no one will ever know,
As the moonlight mingles with her hair at the window.

Abstract stylish lady, her face a vague blend of colors,
No longer with the crowd, now apart from the others, 
In a room of wild, color swirls and vague bright lights,
Both lady and night inscrutable, backlit by moonlight.

Abstract art depends on colors and you are very adept at them.

Your vision is far more acute than mine, I must say, Evelyn! Thanks for the guided tour of this enigmatic painting! :) gw

Thank you so much for your thoughts, Gershon. The poem, however, does not describe any particular work of art. Except the one in my my imagination. :)
