The Poet And The Painter
They both start off with a sheet of white,
One using a pencil, the other a brush,
One using colour, the other words,
To obtain a picture in image and verse.
The greens, the blues, the reds the lights,
They are all present in black on white.
The sun shinig from behind a cloud,
A cat chasing its tail around,
A ship sailing into the night,
Everything possible, both mediums right.
With every brush stroke, with every line.
Creating an artwork, for one\'s delight.
