I play with paints watercolors and inks— today ingrained in my fingertips is green on the paper emerald whorls march a line of prints. . . fading into near horizon yesterday I hand-printed a blank canvas on the wall red—yellow—blue hands merge into green—orange—violet someday my ink-stained hands will escape to leap around— marking all -Beverly |

I enjoyed this one thoroughly. It took me back to my days in pre-school and kindergarten. finger paints were always fun. my favorite lines were. "someday my ink-stained hands will escape to leap around— marking all" very cool. only one suggestion, and this is just from a readers stand point. Perhaps you could use some stanza breaks. for example: I play with paints watercolors and inks— today ingrained in my fingertips is green on the paper emerald whorls march a line of prints. . . fading into near horizon yesterday I hand-printed a blank canvas on the wall red—yellow—blue hands merge into green—orange—violet someday my ink-stained hands will escape to leap around— marking all But, If you're not a fan of that then keep it the way it is. It's just easier, at least for me, to digest poems when they're in stanza's. -John nice use of muffin |

Your screen name fits this poem as you dance from color to color and touch to touch. I have to agree with the suggestion to break into stanzas; I see some powerful images/words that seem missed in the flow of words. I definitely enjoyed your poem. |
