Notes About The Poem

Come My Beauty

 
wandering the art gallery I am feeling blissful
and soon, I find myself among the 18th Century art
I could just fall into these gilded frames and scenes
and become part of the paintings

the beauty often tragic and beautifully painted
the colors chosen sublime and deep
I see a man within a portrait frame following me
with his eyes and he whispers-  come my beauty

and I stand staring at him for the longest time
his dark eyes are deep fathomless pools
and I am truly enthralled with him
I could love the man within this frame

I want to stroke his flowing raven hair
kiss his full lips that beckon for me to come  
then, he reaches out 
and I hold tight his seeking hand

then, within a gilded frame at the art gallery
this handsome raven haired man
is kissing my ruby lips 
many stop and remark at the reality of the art

L Milton Hankins August 5, 2022 at 7:10 PM A marvelous experience, Constance. And, that is precisely the response the artist wanted. It was probably a self-portrait, you think? Constance La France August 7, 2022 at 2:11 AM Milt, thank you so much for the compliment, perhaps the artist wanted to painting to be so real, perhaps a self portrait it is always a marvelous experience for me at the art gallery, I just get lost in the art, blessings ~Constance
