The Poet's Art

The poet paints a picture With brushstrokes from his pen Is the scenery embattled? Will the choir sing again? His words are breathing characters Living in the mind Imagination brings to life the light Emotions are entwined He sees the world in poetry The colors vibrant, sure With love embracing distant clouds The poet’s art is pure

Bless you Linda....I have been away a lot lately so haven't done much lately. It is a busy time with the garden, the bees and family stuff too.
