The Essence of You

With brush in hand

I stroke gently across the canvas

searching for the beauty I feel within

 

Trying to capture the essence of your beauty

but I feel inadequate to do you justice

but I continue painting

 

After a few moments

I can see your beauty as it

transforms from my mind

I can almost reach out and touch you

 

I can feel your heart beat with mine

you come alive

you are my creation

the essence of my mind...

This poem is informative about the meaning of love. Sometimes I forget and search for a definition, but I feel like these people know what they are singing about. It's nice to reflect that people can make us feel brand new,

Among so many very modern poems, it is actually so refreshing to read one that brings a bit of a classic structure back. Very beautiful!

This is really great, Wordman! I love the subtle cadence that has a good rhythm. It captures the moment when creativity comes alive. Also, it really seems to come full circle in its meaning at the end! Brilliant!

I imagine a Baroque scene with this one, is that accurate?

[wordman]

right on and thanks
