Magical Moment

Billowing marshmallow clouds
reflect on pellucid lake
With watercolors and brush 
I swiftly capture this stunning scene

Dear Jan, I cannot paint to save my life, but I love both nature and art, and you bring them together so poetically. I love imagining your marshmallow clouds reflecting on a pellucid lake... sounds like a perfectly lovely and mellow spring day. Congrats on your POTW, my friend! Hugs ~ John

A vision of beauty can be so fleeting. Wise lady to capture its spirit on paper with watercolors and brush. I, too, love to paint with watercolors. This is so charming Jan. Best wishes for the contest. Many hugs coming your way.

March 18, 2022 at 3:28 PM

Thanks Sam I am not creative at all, not artistic in any way so its just pure poetic licence xx
