A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 98

Day 98: “Painting”

Sometimes I think I could be a painter

I like to wet my brush

And see what I can create

I always start from something else

Usually an Albert Marquet painting

I like the nature

Mixed with European architecture

I see how well I can mimic

I take creative liberties

Usually on the colors

And dumbing down the design a bit

To something more in my wheelhouse

I have a lot of fun

And am almost always proud of the finished product

Even if my paintings look best when you’re standing far away

Day 47: “Inspiration”

I look out the window

See the sun shining through the clouds

I listen to new music

On repeat

I watch a classic romcom

And feel nostalgia flooding me

I lay down

After a busy day

I move my muscles

And stretch

I take the bus

And sit on a worn, weathered seat

I pet my cat

And cuddle up to her

I talk with my loved ones

And give tight hugs

I cook

Paint

Clean

I see beauty all around

I’m inspired
