Black and White Photography For Contest

In new perspective I see you

Now no color spoils the view

Shadows bow to black and gray

Deeply contrast  light of day


I prefer you

White and black

A pure light source

Floods your back

White streams radiate your sharp boned face

With illuminating fragile grace

Connie Marcum Wong Date: 3/30/2015 5:45:00 PM This poem would have been much higher on my list Victoria. Congrats on your win! I loved it! Login to Reply Victoria Anderson-Throop Date: 4/1/2015 4:08:00 PM Thanks Connie...the contests are a reward for the writers in that we write things we wouldn't have without the stimulus. It is all in the eyes of the beholder....art is subjective...we all have our own point of view..but thank you for your high regard! Always good to hear from you...

This was another poem that never would have "seen the light of day" without a contest! It was a trick of fate...V
