Aesthetics Poems

Premium MemberThe Abbey's Whisper

Stone, kissed by salt, sighs on the isle,
A Gothic spine, against the tide's guile —
eight centuries, etched in weathered stone,
A whispered prayer, a lonely throne.

Granite fingers, reaching for the sky,
Embrace the sun, as shadows fly.
As a timeless grace, the abbey stands as 
A sanctuary in this watery space.

The sea, a restless, murmuring friend,
Whispers tales, to

Premium Memberthose smoky eyes

J D Vance has such smoky, smoldering eyes, doesn’t he?
The way those baby blues coruscate, as if from the darkness.
Are those shadows natural? No, it’s eyeliner, of course, but on
a 40-year-old man it’s called guyliner.

Any teenage girl will tell you the kohl pencil is the gateway
makeup tool for self-definition, if not exactly self-improvement.

As an ex-teenage

Premium MemberAesthetics of the Mind

Not gardens bursting forth with bloom, but landscapes in the mind,
Where tangled thoughts, both light and gloom, in vibrant chaos bind.
A library of whispers old, where knowledge softly gleams,
Each weathered to a story told, in forgotten, dusty dreams.

A kaleidoscope's fractured grace, where swirling colours play,
A mind that seeks, a mind that chases, truth's ever-shifting ray.
The

Premium MemberNo Conclusions the Process of Painting

No Conclusions, THE PROCESS OF PAINTING ***

Not often between lines.
Crossing lanes.  Consuming spaces.
 Ordering gray shadows
Like shaded fog or misty traces —
In a measure of displaced displays
Of reality’s clarity 
In impressions or abstractions,
To emphasize the building theme — with
The colors smudged or  stippled or stroked long
Outlying and blending — cautiously — 
Of as

SIMPLE AESTHETICS

fused elements
of flat-painted
colour

 tensions
fit neatly
next to each
other
&
balance
atop
a  flat plane

 a modernist
 sensibility
  deceptively
locked
together

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

Aesthetics

Everyone loves the piece
But the piece's mouth's 
         Worth no kiss.
Ain't that the trick of the pen?
         Not being poetic; rather, aesthetic.

The other side does not know
         It is not raining

The Aesthetics of Bharatanatyam

As the dancer elegantly performs
This oldest classical dance heritage of India
The Bharatanatyam: A Divine dance art form, 
The grace and beauty of the art, 
Is enhanced by movement, mime and music. 

The facial expressions and gestures of the dancer, 
Her footwork and the costume, 
Blend together with its intricacies to create
Delicate moves of non-verbal communication,

Aesthetics of a Damsel

Her cursory gaze is like the impenitent sun,
Her brave speech are edified like sindey.
Her eyeballs kindled the fire of fun,
And ushered the lucky man into glory.
Her hips are attractive like the plains of
paradise.
Her bowels are contended with wealth and
fortune.
She frown-ly smile like the queen of
franchise,
Enslaving the soul of bewitched juvenile.
Her twinkling teeth are gloriously exposed,
When

Behind the Bitter Love Aesthetics

A man who had been living in a dream
Finally woke up from the ignorance, 
In the time when he saw the dream lover running through a distance
He was frantic, immersed in turmoil

For a moment he understood the essence of being abandoned

An old memories...
Confiscate the story about the hidden feelings towards the hemisphere of soul
And somehow
