Blank Canvas

by RustySoul   Aug 28, 2017


Each one mixed the vibrant colours,
And with different strokes of the brush
Painted upon life's canvas
Proudly presenting their art,
Much to the roaring applause
That was to follow;
While I stood there
With a blank canvas reflecting my state
Still looking for my muse.

    I like this a lot. Sometimes that special person who will make your heart sing and your canvas swirled with color is where you least expect them. Keep seeking and keep writing these amazing poems.

    So glad this is nominated - the imagery is fantastically done but in my opinion pretty sad too

    So, you have been busy looking for your muse...:-)

    A short and meaningful write...if this muse here literally means a partner...then you are right to say life is blank without one.

    If it means happiness or something that will make you happy...start to paint...hehe.

    I loved the depth of this one...great write!
