Poetic Artistry

Some things just need to be together, Lightening and Thunder, Day and Night, Seeing and Hearing, Jesus an Mankind...The Storm is coming, Soon.

Like a vase painted on canvas face

Word painting scripted, Poets do

Descriptive words must fill the space

To paint a shine upon a shoe.

The scenery is scripture bound

Alphabetic tried and true

Not a brush-stroke can be found

A picture written word paints for you.

I was looking at some artistry

Painted by brush and stroke

Viewing bits of History

Without a Poetic pencil stroke.

Too bad, I thought, Poets weren't there

With so little uttered by the crowd

Ear left out from beauty there to share

Something missing, like sky without a cloud.

Consider, 'Beauty of the painted flower

Shining bright with morning dew

Warming the heart hour by hour

To see what God means to you.'

Or, 'Soft clean skin of babe new born

Held close to parent's breast

Love flowing as from Cornucopic horn

Showing life is at it's best.'

Perhaps a river softly flowing

Dark blue with touch of brown

Or rapids white and angry frothing

Warning dangerous rock abound.

The seeing and the hearing

Together sings well to heart

Enchants life with the pairing

Never more to be apart.

Just like man and Jesus

Being One, once together locked

A One of many pieces

Eternal One, with Satan blocked.

AMEN
