The Painted Lady

Lady Sunshine on Oct 17, 2011

An attempt at blank verse gone horribly, horribly wrong. o_O.

Upon the canvas, he paints a vision
Weathered hands that expertly maneuver
With
gentle
strokes
that
boldly
meander

Long lines that dip and bend in unison
Splashes of color kiss the ebony
As
soft
curves
caress
the
tip
of
the
brush

A painted lady unfurling her wings
Her honeyed lips in a delicate pout
Sensuously
bleeding
into
fruition

I think this is fantastic, not horribly wrong at all. I love the way you have presented the words.

Why is this horribly wrong? I love it! It is great.

Hi Lady Sunshine, there’s nothing horribly horribly wrong about this, it’s a beautifully piece of poetry.
