Muse: Speed Painting

Nothing grand or emotional here... saw some speed painting online, and my hands ran with it. lol

Frenzied brush strokes-
determining their own measures,
paint you chocolate
in amber's glaze...
a mind on tilt
cartwheels in abstract visions.

Up close:
bursting earth tones.
From afar:
God smiling back.

Thank you for the uplifting review, friend.

You are welcome my friend.

Your muse had you painting abstract and this reader saw it clearly. The wonderful thing about abstract is that it is so subjective, just like poetry is. I liked what I read and even more the energy, enthusiasm and vibrancy in the brush strokes. Good to read you again Travis, it's been a while.

Yes, it has been too long of a while. I am appreciative that my work is still received well. Thank you for yet another motivating comment.

[Chris Shaw]

You are welcome.

this poem is just like an abstract painting...
and reflects much how I write poetry...bursts, frenzied fingers across the keyboard...
hoping something ends up making sense.
I really like your line "cartwheels in abstract vision"--
you are so talented my friend.
I bow to your ability to paint words on a page.

As usual, you have left me humbled. i've learned much from your work over the years that I've enjoyed membership here, maybe this is a reflection of that.
