Poets and Painters

O the painter’s pallet’s a platitude.
Containers of colors crudely construed,
Creating a colored connectivity;
Abundantly accessing an attitude.

Auspicious the artist’s audacity,
Thunderous tendrils of tenacity,
The painting poet penning his phrases
Creating his colors capriciously.

Like painters, poets with paraphrases,
Have  answers and advice that amazes.
Like poets, the painters purely ponder;
Though it’s the temping tenses that teases.

Wondrous words of wisdom that wander,
Abruptness of adjectives absconder.
It’s a color coded conspiracy
With bolder bimbos becoming blonder.

I guess you can call this an internal rhyming, alliterative, Interlocking Rubáiyát or simply a Toungue Twister.

In a list

    lol.. I actually read it out-loud and it was a tongue-twister for sure!!! Very cool write!

  • LOL! It was a tongue-twister! But so awesome!

    I love the alliteraton. Emphasizes the humor in it.

    The ending lines had me cracking up.

    I know I say this every time, but you really are the most talented poet of our day.

    Being a bit of both I can tell you that the only thing that separates them is the means of delivery.

    Four excellant poems that fit well together through their theme. A beautiful example of the Rubaiyat. ---In short, a beautiful poem in dazzled imagery.
