By The Second Line Comments

very very nice Sonya, I like it much better than the original Spellbound, esp. the ending it very strong. My favorite lines are the last two, though there are several others in a close second: 'My eyes ripple life... my smile Widening like the sky'

interesting concept that inspiration transcends media - as one view becoming the personification of another - how music can inspire words, pictures inspire music (as in Moussorsky) and people inspire art (Mona Lisa) . Opens up old avenues of expression for new exploration.

Who would not be spellbound by such luminous imagery? A poem painting of rare beauty. Exceptional, Sonya. Love, SandraX

Nice write Sonya I almost feel this part I've cut ought to be your closure however. It could be dropped on the end of the poem and just let the space close in between. I think it would still be very readable and understandable without changing any words at all. Just a thought. A painting in verse mirror a picture in words Interchangeable the vision mine and hers One and the same both recognizing that face without name A poet friend RH Peat

Hi Sonya, You've captured the moment with your words here and created a beautiful verse that made me want to read it again, and some more... Nice write. Frank

Lovely thoughts and images are caused by your words.............

Sonya, this poem is truly beautiful and all of the wonderful comments reflect this. All I can add is that these words caught my eye and captured my heart: 'Her deft hands and inner eye /capturing dream and reality / the transparent duality'. This poem is a superb and admirable creation! S :)

What a beautiful poem, Sonya! Every line rings true with imagery and word choices that match the mood. not a word out of place, not a syllable too much. Nothing overstated. This is certainly one of your best!

Epiphany penned with paint. A beautiful expression of the non-duality of all things in life and art. Your final line: '...my smile widening like the sky.' is particularly memorable. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Yes, dear sonya; all are capable of embracing sky and covering earth in one step!

This is something. You have captured it so elegantly with your words. Love the reference to the third eye. I like to look for that in poems. (smile)
