~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The window is foggy
So the trees appear like an impressionist’s painting
Smeared by the heat of the moment

As if I am still dreaming
Within the mirage you have created

Now the trees materialize like a surreal portrait
Of my mind’s contorted invention

Radiating within the vapor surrounding your villa
Where the imagery is cubist and laced with foreign angles

What was it that kept me under this spell?

I still believe in a momentary truce
Between time and space
Between distance and detail

But the easel I now see
Holds the likeness of someone I no longer know

You are now embellished with non-spacial colors
Reflecting your state of artistic validity

A true masterpiece
Yet unfinished

such great work...But don't ever stop...

Men! A bunch of peeping Toms the whole lot of yous. ;-)



A provocative write here, Jude, with the gentle flow of a whispering brook. We often overlook "true masterpieces" in the making when we look only with physical eyes. ~~Nordette

As I look deeply into the imagery you are portraying I see beauty but I also sense a sadness or longing for something that might have been. Hits home Robert with a solid impact. thank you for sharing your heart and soul.

This poem is a masterpiece in its own right. (or is it write?) Your vivid words worked like the brush of an accomplished artist to paint a picture of life and of someone who has a bit of mystery about them that you are still challenged to understand. Beautiful write, Robert.
Take care,
Sherry

In this writing your palette and brushes dance with your inspiration through a world that has always spoken to me and through which I find, sometimes, the only language in which to speak. Art. Here, you paint a masterpiece of that unfinished masterpiece that evolves through many styles and stages... like Art (like life) itself.

Artistic travel through time, space and inner landscape can be quite a Bunyan Pilgrim's Progress sometimes. You have captured something very special here for me... that the outward expression of whatever creative form we present is somehow devoid of true meaning unless the heart and soul are where it is birthed. Beauty for its own sake can impress with its breathtaking excellence and produce an enormous awe, but it is spiritually "cold" perhaps. Yet something which has the essence of its creator within it is able to make the sort of connection with the souls of others that moves them deeply... Now, how did I extrapolate this from your poem above??! No idea, but perhaps I am just proving my own point here! No matter; this is roundly beautiful and delivers its proposition with a gracious delicacy. And it has given me inspiration today to revisit the unfinished business of my own Artist and Model!! :)) TY Kate xx
