The Artist

Looking at your profile in my eyes view,
I will capture your look, this elegance and grace,
this portrait will be the essence of you,
such beauty encapsulates your face,
using my fingers to draw the contours of your flesh,
to bring to life this pulsating you,
using colour and hues to make you fresh,
bringing this canvas alive for others to view,
your eyes so gleaming and bright,
soft and pouted vibrant lips,
all will see this light,
creating this masterpiece others will want to kiss,
I will fade one day but you will always be in sight.

About this poem:
Having an artistic bent, yes I can draw but it has been many years since I actually did so with a passion so thought of the emotions and feelings one goes through when trying to capture something on paper, canvas or even in your mind.

beautifulyou
it seems we all fade... into light,
into the light

this is a very beautiful piece Stedan,
so true the artist brings an energy of motion and form into the world that cannot fade but become a part of the larger whole, always flower
Stedan
We all draw when children and even today I still have drawings and crayoned pictures my children drew some 30 years ago my prized possessions as it captures their imaginations at that age.
And as beuatifulyou says we all fade into the light but a picture no matter how small or large remains around till it is destroyed by nature or intent.
