Coloring Music With a Pen

An artist can paint a scene with colors so abstract... A musician can create sounds that flow from front to back... But a poet can play with words and form images that each set of eyes can draw from... A simple phrase that shouts to one ear can easily hum to another one... When you look at a painting you can write what you see or feel... As when you play a tune you can scribble words that will make it alive and real... My instrument is my pen and my blank sheet is my canvas... Together I write from dreams all so precious...

Hi Michael..I will slowly take a stroll down your poetry lane this year...I shall start on this boulevard. The similies thru out are magical ...the couplets glide nicely over your canvas. Enjoyed ever so much. Gwendolen.
