I, too, like the middle one a lot, but something about the last one really intrigues me. I\'d have to say it is my favorite of the three. Kudos, Michael! Love the painting too.

An intriguing trio of couplets here Michael - can relate to the middle one as youth is so fleeting. Lovely watercolour too.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ LOVE CYMING RHOUPLETS ~ FOR ME THE ULTIMATE ~ Frugal Poetic Form ~ One Liners (nomally) are non~rhyming. To make COUPLET ONE into Rhyming Couplet (you did not say they rhymed !) I would suggest revision to:
In LIFE he never knew her name
In DEATH she Marble Cast became !
Now polished and with outstretched hand
She acts as an Umbrella Stand
(This couplet is optional ~ of course !)
Yours BRIAN the FUSSY !

Well done, Michael. Sad three couplets! The middle is my favorite. But surely even if youth is gone, there\'s still room for new hopes and dreams!

I just love limericks, one of these days I guess I will have to try my hands on one of these. Love your writing!

An interesting observation of myself ... the picture is quite disturbing to me? Creates strong inner anxiety. But then we all knew I was a little strange. Have you seen such a reaction to some of your work before, Michael? Curious. Love the cute limerick!

Thanks MICHAEL out on a limb again
Polished and with outstreched hand
The Man from Tashkent
With his back slightly bent
Now acts as an Umbrella Stand
Love the picture of an exploding Bag of Cement ~
Falling off the back of a Lorry ~ in LIVERPOOL !
Your BRIAN

Great limerick.
As for the painting I would have thought of nothing less than it creating its own way as the brush put the paint on the \'canvas\'. Abstract painting like many poems have a life of their own and the ideas do change of their own free will as the words or paint flow.
I can see another poem coming about this topic.

To beat that first post of Edwards
Fred set off early bedwards
but although his rhyme
was somewhat sublime
two minutes too late is what Fred was.

Gone but not forgotten ! loved the Poem and the complementary Picture. I like QUATRAINS and a KIRIELLE way to present them ! Also like Rhyming Couplets so I like your choice of rhyme pattern aabB ccbB ddbB eebB ! You have made each line 4 the same hence B ~ it can vary. For instance you could vary word four (RESTFUL) in each line etc. Thanks for daring & sharing ~ BRIAN

A beauty, this one, Michael! The repeating last line is very effective, and the closing phrase ties it up with a punch.

Michael this is a beautiful poem, you succeeded admirably. And the watercolor \'ain\'t bad either\'!
And btw, the \'he\'d taken flight\' fits perfectly as far as I am concerned.
