Art Visual

There is music for the ears and fragrance for the nose,
delicious foods for taste buds, touch of satin in a rose.

But for us, the many lucky ones who have sense of sight,
art visual surrounds us, to fill us with delight.

No sense of hearing do we need when in the presence of
God’s beauty found in nature and gifted by His love.

God also gifted artists with creativity
to enchant all of our senses, especially visually!

We see it in our fabrics and clothing that we wear
enhancing many body types - this from designers’ flair!

It’s in our architecture - awesome structures in this world, 
in statues and in pottery from which mere clay was swirled.

Famous paintings in museums are well-renowned as art
so visually stunning that they touch a person’s heart.

Photography and videos and the movies we hold dear
entrance our mind and sight as well as what we hear!

Creators we were born to be, like God, whose artwork is
the finest we can emulate. The best we see is His!

March 2, 2019 for Line Gauthier's Creativity in Visual Arts

This is great flow and rhyme heated up and ready to rumble (Kyle influence). You covered it, everything I was going to write, you have it - a thorough and poetic job, a delight to read (no, I didn't really have the same idea - I have zip idea for visual arts). Loved this. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Natural beauty tops anything man can create. I just wrote an article about Prospect Park - an oasis of beauty in the heart of Brooklyn. The architecture in parts of the borough I used to live in can be quite stunning. Nice sentiments in this work! Matthew Anish

This reflects some of my own sentiments, especially, 'the best we see is His'. I really like that you included various forms of expression -- architecture gets forgotten, sometimes... all the magnificent cathedrals, and mosques and old lighthouses... This one -- very nice!
