To Noah a sign of life
And others ,a symbol to end strife-
A pictorial arbor emblem
To encompass God's kingdom...

Hitherto unseen chance arrangements
a pictorial fiction, representation immortelle
Banal,but witty yet disconcerting in its
fortuitous resemblance to veracity
A novel way of seeing ,to the jaded eye....

Oh, wow! 
How pictorial
You did paint 
Your painful plight 
Made so attractive 
As picture with 
Stinging tears 
Drying up. 

Frowning,
I so admire 
The sad art of 
A great thousands 
Of little thoughts 
To still spare 
Till the moro 
Daybreak....

Candescent translucent radiant views 
Eyes sparkling adoring use vintage kaleidoscope 
Prestige rainbows running across the skies in the seas
Blurred canvas pictorial radiant hues
Heaven's collage picture perfect....

Shivering velvet pictorial
Moving Winters blown naked trees
Breathing bellowing breeze
Environmental effects seasonal
Like folding flooring like a linen flag
Salting sprinklers of driven snows
Shaking winter tree
Shivering velvet pictorial

isolated
 conduits 
   of frontal forms 

poses portrayed
      figurative 
          fantasies
              finessed

obsessed introspectives
intense
         expressive lines
    in focussed reflections
 silhouetted studies 
              fleshed out

 sensual depictions
  
       emphasised 
in
precocious
pictorial perceptions...

 free verse 

Artist, Susan Boulet
makes the connection between 
observation and application.

Through figures of fantasy
she creates a spirit of solitude.
Heads and hands
intermix thoughts and practice
capturing the visage of the heart.

Images juxtaposed -
her genius is pictorial haiku.
May she rest in the peace
she has bequeathed to us....

Sidelong the sun beats
                  in warm pan where loves
                  naturally happen
                  Mature love between
                  apples and peaches,
                  and looks of pure flirtation
                  grapes and cherries ...
                  Nothing carnal ,,,
                  pictorial

sunlight&shadow
   upon the floor
splashes of colour

a perfect pictorial setting
through clear glass windows
      tangled trees
        landscapes of old

the misery of frustration
    envisaged&drawn
    inner nature transfigured
a clear natural vision
of an intellect exposed
       for all to see

disfactisfaction
    displayed
        again&again...

the  pictorial

 more perfect

 heartwarming

of

the
 impossible

to imagine

The painter's dream,
The painter's realm,
Like a golden orb,
Beauty that makes the heart throb.

There’s a world in the painter’s chamber,
Every chamber resonating in its timbre,
Reflecting on their diverse colours,
In symmetry and contours.

At the end of today,
At the close of every day,
Are mystical moments,
Inspiration comes in torrents.

  circular 
      round dance
faraway
       looks

metamorphosis

in a pictorial
cosmos
of tranquil enjoyment

naturalistic

floral fluidity 
     disclosed 
in fragile beauty

artifacts announced 
                in allegory
a semblance 
     of stilled life 
ornate 
yet commonplace 

enjoyment ancient&modern 
in fragments 
       of familiarity
assemblage of emblems
of 
the everyday
              motifs
anecdotes 
of the incidental 
ostensible&elementary 

inanimates
 to deceive
    the eye....

When your point is fraught with nastiness
When your images and words have no classiness
Perhaps it’s time to look in the mirror
Perhaps it is you that people should fear
Are your words of love, joy peace, patience,
kindness, faithfulness, goodness, gentleness
and most of all self-control?
Do you wade with the masses
in their pictorial and metaphoric priggishness
I’m worried about you, world
