Artist's Canvas Waiting I on easel frame An artist eye to call my name An artist vision, soft and clear To whisper in my canvas ear An ever calm and gentle stroke A fire lit, a soul awoke And sweet imagination fill My textured skin with fire's thrill But feel I brush across my chest Of subtle stokes of loneliness Of darkened hues and umbered tones His weary spirit weary drones Would that his palette full contained Pastel hues of springtime rain Colors bright of noon delight Cover me with pleasures bright Would then his brush have more finesse And bristles soft, a soft caress And kiss the canvas, canvas chest And soothe the weary sore unrest Placed I here by artist hand On easel sit at his command Should then he not my whole caress For sit I here in loneliness Elizabeth Santos |

Elizabeth - Makes me want to pick up the palette and splash color across the canvas. Me thinks that your words paint a masterpiece. Beautiful. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Ruth Poetic verse, not visual art That sings the truth of artist's heart The truth the painted canvas know Written in the verse below A rhyme of love, A rhyme of art The water color artist's heart For water paint the better love The feather soft of mourning dove More delicate and more fragile flush More difficult the painter's brush Water color artist's art Read the verse and learn his heart Thank you, Ruth Elizabeth |
