A recent poem about art lovers & their love of art


Poem Artwork

 The feeling & knowing

Of what they’re showing

In song, visual or word

Their stories unheard

Now clearly expressed

Art lovers are obsessed

Feeling deep within

What is under their skin

Contained in their heart

Expressed in their art

In rhyme, pose or dance

Giving others a chance

To see, feel & hear

What they hold dear

Their skill, gift or talent

From heaven it’s sent

With God they share

His creative flair

Just look & see

What comes from he

Cloud forms up high

The sunset in the sky

Tree’s, grass & flowers

Thunderstorms & showers

Waterfall, river or stream

A geyser expressing steam

A vast mountain range

Or creatures so strange

A slug, toad or a snail

A slow worm loses its tail

When faced with a foe

A new one will grow

A butterfly is seen

A cocoon it has been

A caterpillar before then

Helps put paper to pen

For Artists such as me

Inspired by all we see

Or what we may go through

In life the same as you

The good times & the bad

The happy or the sad

A means of expression

Art is an obsession

Trees for thought. I must admit, I am an art lover.
