Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Poet Quintain (English)

The Perfect Painting: Painting and Poetry In One

With her brush and canvas, she charily dash
Slowly and surely, never ever she rushed
Each stroke a decisive measured stoke
Yielding a beauty of light and heavy poke
A family of emotions, she does evoke

Even palette of events she illustrates
As she aims for a perfect painting
People that sees, admiration they rain
Her perfect painting, placed high like bling-bling
Persons exclaim adoration similar to a king

Yet to someone, starting dreams it deteriorate
Is her perfect painting implies coup de grace?
Frustration it deliver... it generates... 
Her encouraging words useless to brace
Even to bounce for a breathing space

Her picture did neither criticize nor mock
Yet, its fairness silently touched and pluck
Probably causing a string of charign
Swift as the gust of a passing wind
The effects felt timeless strong never thins


Inspiration: the video with these: "Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen" by Leonardo de Vinci and "painting is silent poetry and poetry is painting that speaks" by Plutarch

Jake Ponce May 31, 2014 at 10:48 AM I could picture a painter, calculating her breath, the weight she puts on her brush and the emotions she must let out in order to create. I can also see multiple muses guiding each move of her brush. Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser June 1, 2014 at 3:45 PM Thank you very much JAke.. :) i appreciate oyur drop by.. :)
