Musing On Monet In houses where Monet would dwell, Some lovely gardens lay as well. There he spent so many hours, Painting images of flowers. Waterlilies, every hue, Held quite a fascination too. These paintings that he left behind, Bring such tranquility to mind. Reflect the graciousness of ways That people lived in those lost days. He loved the light that changed each day As quiet hours slipped away. He'd study how it altered all The scenery, how shadows fall And how the colors too would dim Or brighten, at the sunlight's whim. His artistry remains today Uniquely his, in every way. Betty Lou Hebert |

I love Monet. This is a fine tribute to his genius. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

You're right. Monet certainly had his own lasting style. It took you to write a poem about it. thanks. Joyce |
