Artist: Henri Matisse

Feel the Braille of skin.
See me through your blind man’s touch,
~ Read me like a book.

This poem was inspired by Midnitesun's senryu, "i am nothing"
/pip/Forum93/HTML/000722.html

"I am nothing if

I am not an open book

~turn the page slowly~"

~ Thanks Kacy for the inspiration!

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

Lovely Lee ~

One of the marks of a good poem is it being the inspiration for another poem!

grand inspiration indeed....beautiful Linda~

In your light I learn how to love
In your beauty how to make poems
You dance inside my chest where
no one sees you and that sight becomes this art

    Sure am glad Midnitesun posted her inspirational writing!  Your poem and the Matisse fit together like a hand in glove!
Excellent combination, my sparkly eyed friend!
