Pale flowers crowd a sheet
Sleeping, lifeless, but a dream
Each petal a promise
Each stem stupendous
Leaves that want to leap
As eyes wander with God’s regard
Palms pulsate and synapses synthesize
Chroma and contrast leap to the artist’s plan.
Hand grasping for this color and that
Sometimes one sometimes two
The eye now beams down
And pigment animates
Aesthetic blessing
One of a kind
Union of art and artist
Complementary reflections
Tao Talk 
The artist is maybe the most important part of the art I think

I like the shape of this poem, Jade, and the way the artwork comes alive, is animated by your words. I like very effective alliteration in the lines:
‘Each petal a promise
Each stem stupendous
Leaves that want to leap’.

Wow! I like how the spirit moves with the format and alignment you have chosen for the words. The first half is pulsating with movement
Each petal a promise
Each stem stupendous
Leaves that want to leap
There is a gradual ebbing after that – like a musical piece.
Thanks, Jade!

An artist who paints is impressive, like the jazz musician who sees the notes as images as he improvises–but for me it is the sculptor who ranks at the top, staring at a block of stone, and seeing the statue within, and releasing that form with his hands.

I leapt inside when I read that the leaves leapt! Or is it leaped?

When I finished writing it, I decided to center it and immediately thought it looked like a vase. The subconscious mind at work.

A little jumpy and broken for me. But the idea was interesting. I’m not a big fan of centered poems — wrote a joke on them here

Rob, I’m so glad you connect with this poem, it pretty much wrote itself and then provided the vase to contain it 🙂 I appreciate your kind comments.
