Haiku Friday: Art


It's time again for Haiku Friday-- don't they seem to be coming faster now that we are in the heart of summer? For me, that means I am closer to leaving, a bittersweet feeling. It makes me think about the things that are eternal-- love, beauty, truth, the stories that (in different colors) pervade every culture.

Today, though, let's think about art.

If you could have any painting in your home, what would you choose?

Red predominates
Subtle gradations, maroon,
Picture of a heart.

Now it is your turn. Five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, five in the last...

Wyeth, "Christina's World"
Something about that long field,
Looking towards the house.

Monet's Giverney
Blended green and purple hues
It makes me feel cool

Dancing in the rain,
The pair entranced by their love -
No care in the world

A farmhouse, grey skies
I know how that air must feel
Texans don't know fall

Swirls of bold color
In challenging abstractions
Made with her crayons.

Something that I could sell to some billionaire for lots of money at a Christie's auction.

A canvas, blank but
For the possibility
Of what is to come.
