Winslow Homer (1836–1910) | Essay | The Metropolitan Museum of Art | Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History

Listen to poem:

*Image of Winslow Homer's 'The Gulf Stream' provided by, The Metropolitan Museum of Art TrueheARTedness Poetic Form: Rhyme Neath lolls the abyss, some monster shifts, ontop heaves mammoth swells -- ship wane toy'ishly, rocked side to side, amidst the roaring sea. Accomplished panoramic art, celebrates the scape by heart, for Winslow Homer's nature, the American name rings bells. Faraway, choice views the Monet as none had stood beside it, yet fate brings on a mystic stare, pupils up close, concoct spells from a traipsing fool -- a hall waits, Renoir, Matisse, and Cezanne. Freed eyes vigorous strokes of Van Gogh's refuge, not parallels since sought asylum was the sanctuary where'd he be free. Celebrates the scape by heart, accomplished panoramic art, sparked artist's insights, charm us like coins flickers in wishing wells. 2021 April 24 *8th Place* A New Abracadabra Poem ~~Emile Pinet: Judged 2021 June 01

Gosh, I wish I could write like that, William. Or, I'll taking painting, which I tried and failed dismally at. Thanks for bringing this experience to me.
