Anything blank is a canvas
for the artist to fill
with the colors of life
with whatever he will.
To create a picture
or demonstrate emotion
blue, white capped
and you have the ocean.

A prism refracted
light in color blooms
the artist works diligently
in a barely lit room,
and with brush or pen
a masterpiece lives
with the life the artist
so skillfully gives.

What a beautiful reflection of art, both the poem and the sentiment.

It's amazing, the possibilities of an empty canvas. I like this very much White Rose!

As a rhymer myself, I appreciate one's ability to rhyme unforced, coupled with an excellent rhythm/flow. Of course, the content is important too.

You have done both extremely well with this write. Enjoyed!

I love the thoughts thrown upon the canvas of life~
Made me think of our sweet Seymour who is not only a 'canvas' artist ... but a word-artist also~
