All Art Is a Painting
All art is a painting
with oil or water
with sound
with words
Larry well-described painting with sunlight
with but a sole mention of chiaroscuro
Kandinsky painted with form oft obscure
Ludwig encompassed the spectrum
from darkness to moonlight to the sunlight of hope
Even Wolfgang
simply recall Papageno
But poetry
oft described as painting with words
demands a voice
paints with the sounds of words
with assonance and consonance
with rhythm and rhyme and repetition
with brevity
