Painting

Is a serene, Calming, Placid, Composed, Tranquil, And quiet speciality. Painters are in a peculiar class. They are suppose to help us see pass The glass To what's on the canvas. This is a task. When I have to ask Is that really a palm that I would buy? Then I have to remember beauty is in the eye Of the beholder. It may not be what I percieve Yet, I truly believe A painter can always show us their creativity And diversity Of their reality Of a city. Once in a while people have in the scheme Of things the same dream If you know what I mean.

You have expressed how painters view the world remarkably Bette. I used to create sculptures and I can relate perfectly to what you mean. : )

Thank you. I am glad I could express the artists, along with the sculptures view. I think it's wonderful that you did sculptures. I love going to the premiere to see these things and hang out with the poets, artists, and the people who do sculptures. I learn so much.

Being an artist and a poet, and a cartoonist, I do believe your poem has honored all three of these sides of myself,and I am grateful, Bette.

Thank you. I think it takes all types of people to make us aware of what's out there. Some definitely have more than others which makes me want to keep trying.
