TRICK OF THE EYE
Weather paints me.
I am an illusion of light,
dappled dot of pigment
running with a southerly breeze,
merging into heather
and fading into sand;
invisible in space
and time
were it not for the
eye of the artist
who paints me
naked and with wings,
seeing me as a livid dash
of eye-catching water,
skin the colour of wind,
body outstretched and brushed
across a canvas of sable sky

Kate, split personalities in a diploid existance at present?...or is this actually a third persona...that wisp of you that dances under the sun and swings in the breeze, an angelic sprite free of the confines of humanity...with you master's pen, dear Kate, you can be anything you want to be.

Exceptional verses of poetry that read as if I were admiring and pondering upon a painting. Thank you for sharing this gift, Kate. Love and peace to you,

Beautiful Kate! A self-portrait, perhaps? Painting from inside out?
At any rate, a lovely poem.
You know how to HOOK the reader with an opening line and compel them to celebrate each glorious word of your poetry and wish it didn't have to end....brilliantly worded and imaged, I love this one!!!!!!!! Definately a keeper. Thank you!
Oh bugger, I've painted you with your clothes on and given you horns now, I'll have to start again...ho-hum...LOl ;)...Yup! silly head's on. Needless to say you don't need anyone to paint you, for you have presented us with a vivid canvas of your own dearest Kate. Excellent write Mizz MP.
your heart speaks with tones of exceptional poety beauty ...

Your social and aesthetical ambivalences may be pulling you hither and thither, but your artistic brushstrokes are still in pristine mode..
You are a master at embellishing and enamoring your excellent labours..
