The Majesty

A picture paints a thousand words they say what do they know? Your picture reveals the majesty of coming dusk of the stars from shrouded mystery pulls a burning sun from stormy clouds faster than Apollo’s fiery chariot. Your picture is an oasis of serenity to my stormy mind to my restless heart to my unquiet soul. Only your sapphire eyes (those chambers of ethereal love and joy) could wrest the heavens from their sanctuary return creation to oblivion. Your picture does not paint a thousand words no it unfurls realms galaxies vast universes indomitable power before my heart and kills dead the armies of my despair.

Rob, you have penned such a beauty, I really admire how you did this Free Verse. When the art gallery was open in my city (closed now because of Covid) I would go and let the paintings inspire me to write a poem about them, this reminded so much of those wonderful days of getting lost in the art gallery, well done _Constance
