Comment from dragonpoet
Hi Jodi
This is a well done free verse that show how painting and writing are linked as arts. It is a well done extended metaphor. It is sometimes surprises what the mind can come up with and how some things just can't be put into words.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Congrats on placing third in the contest.
Have a great day.

P S Just thought I would let you know that I just published a book called The Interloper and other stories in prose and poetry by Joan Pechter. It is available on Amazon.com.
-
Thank you so much! Also, will have to take a look at your book!
-
Also I was wondering, how did you go about publishing your writings? I would love to do that as well!
-
Jodi.
I did it on Kindle Direct Publishing.
You write, format it and edit it and then follow the directions on KDP and then it is published if they choose. If it is published it is available about 3 days after it is published. I use Google Docs to edit it.

Yes, sometimes there are no words that can adequate describe the emotions that surface from the depths of our souls but somehow we try because we are moved to create with words or paint. Best wishes in the contest! Good to see you back!

You have printed a very beautiful picture of the art of writing, poetry and writing in general with your words. I enjoyed listening to it very much. It flows very well when it is read aloud. Patricia.

I like how you connect the world of art with that of poetry. They are both expressions of hidden emotions, rising from the heart and mind. Sometimes the colors blur the words and at other times the words become louder than the colors. Either way - the creation is real.

Paintings can speak a thousand words and this can often be said about Holbein's work Jodi as he left secret messages in his paintings. I enjoyed the sentiments here Jodi, love Dolly x

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
An excellent entry for the Free Verse Poem contest. The point you make in your poem is very true. There are times when we need to turn to art or even music when words aren't enough and there are times when only words will do and those words are put together artistically and musically in prose and poetry. Very nicely written.
