Poem Artwork

Home of Exiled Portraits

Through the house of poetry I seek, maybe
the exile of portraits in multiplicity
of shadows outlining lights of myself...

Never the same, and never the same lights
exiled in the portraits -
or in that intrinsic crowd of my own -
which I don't detain, but find, after all
in the mere purity
of my mutable shadow
seeking me through the walls
where, clearly, I outline my only soul
if unfinished
upon the subtle soul
of a poem
at home.

"One portrait
can never truly capture
the essence of the whole."
©2005 Joseph* ~ OneLight*®

The soul remains unfinished,
just like the poem and the painting
and we are driven to go on creating.

You are a True Artist, meu Amor.

Endless Love & Light,
Joseph

This poem is really so very true, poets fill so many canvasses witht he portraits of words of things they know and care about, some are clear, some abstract but all master strokes from the artists brushes.

Excellant write Alexandra,

Felix

Intriguing and provocative write. I also liked its flow. It seems many poets have this type of connection to poetry. It is a spiritual walk for the poet who dives deeply. :-) ~~Nordette

A truly captivating piece, Alexandra - both poem and graphic.

A deep thought-provoking poem. The picture have also added so much to the qualities to this poem. Well-done indeed on both!
