Flowers In Art
A tulip in a vase
on a rigid stand
does it really hold a thousand words?
or a thousand strokes
as the artist paints
it upon a fresh canvas?
What is going through their mind
with each stroke,
each dab of paint,
each mark it leaves behind
what memory does it hold-
whose life does it embellish
or is it just a painting
thought of by the artist
to spark the interest of the onlooker?
