Painting Poetry

poetry is another painting...

What's the best work of art you've ever seen?

Is it the Mona Lisa?

Or the Scream?

How's about poetry?

Poetry is another type of painting,

Words to describe the poet's feelings.

They are the true artists.

Able to paint amazing pictures

With words and punctuation.

Letting their viewers

Get a good glance of the

Panorama

Hidden amongst their words.

That's called

Painting Poetry...

Nice poem indeed and I agree with your words wholeheartedly, but please
take Salvatore's advice if you wish to be considered for a prize in his
contest. Thanks.

[Salvatore Buttaci]

A good poem but it doesn't follow the requirements of a Balassi.

9 lines in length and has a syllable count of 6-6-7-6-6-7-6-6-7, the rhyme for each stanza is aabccadda.

[Nancy Lee Shrader]

I liked this. Well done.
