Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps! Poem by Denis Martindale

Within the AI world online, where text to images grow,
We'll find some wondrous things so fine we can get blessed to know.
Perchance to organise a scene, to get to generate,
A tiger's face that looks serene, majestic, noble, great.
So I explored and prompted text to learn what AI makes,
Discovering what happens next and how long each one takes!

In seconds, my first image came to save or try once more,
In seconds, new ones, not the same, but better than before.
Some changes made to those displayed and soon I was on track,
With new ones, at a higher grade, now I had got the knack.
Within a dozen tests I had a picture I could use,
I smiled as I was mighty glad, because this was good news!

And pretty soon, since first I came, I chose to start again,
This time, I got a golden frame so quick and without strain.
So my computer used these now, combining these to one,
I used the tools it would allow to get this new task done.
Perchance some poets could try, too, enhancing what they write,
By testing what AI can do, no matter, day or night!

This poem is about the free AI services that help us generate
the images we're looking for to add to our brand new poems.
Perchance to create beauty beyond compare that looks so
impressive that people will remember our poems even longer!

The AI golden framed tiger's face looks similar to a wonderfully
detailed wildlife tiger's face painting by artist Stephen Gayford.
It is called Portrait Of A Prince, as described in my short poem
that has been explained by teachers in their YouTube videos.
