A Captivating Sight Poem by Ernestine Northover
A Captivating Sight
The artist's brush scoops up the shades of green,
and creates a scene.
Trees, banks, deep valleys, fields and gentle hills,
how the picture fills.
Some vivid yellows in the sunshine's rays,
on his canvas, blaze.
Rich blue envisaged in the summer sky,
is the perfect dye.
Such subtle shadows to be applied in black,
require the knack.
The whole portrayal is a captivating sight,
with highlights, white.
Then somewhere you'll find a signature in grey,
inscribed - Manet.
Captured the scene very well with the brush of words in play........lovely write!
Very pretty words that bring images alive, Enjoyable read! Lilly :)

It's amazing what art can make you feel at times. I could really picture the imagery on this one. And Manet, who better than to write about? !
