So this is my first ever blog post other than Myspace and Facebook so i guess you could say it is my first ever real blog post.
I am excited to start this new blog. I think it will inspire me to write more poetry. I am also going to include a picture of my artwork with every blog.
Today I wrote a really great poem, I think the best i've ever written. I was just laying on my bed doodling and the thought popped into my head "Im gonna write a poem" so I did.
i believe I was inspired by paint speckles left on my hands from painting class today. Although I was inspired by such a simple thing, I think that this poem really says a lot about how I see the world. It's amazing how the smallest thing can turn into something so amazing and inspiring.
So here goes the first poem I am sharing on this blog!
Splattered paint on a hand so gesturely
As if all the world had come down on one little speck of white
If only pureness could come so softly
The painless world of tomorrow
Somehow time could come to this
Today the splatters show as white
The color of pureness and light
What if tomorrow they come as black
The color of darkness and all that is bad
Then the world could stop in stillness and not be a world at all
But just a speck
As if all the world had come down on one little speck of white
If only pureness could come so softly
The painless world of tomorrow
Somehow time could come to this
Today the splatters show as white
The color of pureness and light
What if tomorrow they come as black
The color of darkness and all that is bad
Then the world could stop in stillness and not be a world at all
But just a speck
I may or may not add onto this poem at some point. I feel like if I try to add onto it, it will not have the same feel to it since this just came out naturally and if I tried adding more it would be unnatural because I would be forcing myself to think about it. But we will see what happens.
I hope that you will enjoy this poem. Please let me know what you think because I'd love to get others opinions.
