Hi Agatha A beautiful understanding of the Potrait of Dorian Gray. I wanted to let you know I was as well flabbergasted from this theme. You can visit my poetry and read my Pictures of Dorian Gray I think you would enjoy my approach to the theme as well, Great writing, thanks for sharing, Paul

This could be used as a poetic summary of The Picture of Dorian Gray. A nice tribute to Oscar Wilde himself. A great psychological novel that continues into the ages. While I do not like the way this poem flows, the author did a great job capturing the character of Dorian Gray. An interesting, thought provoking read.

Nice poem, I liked it, thanks for sharing...Such a wonderful and inspiring ending Yet, in life everything comes up with a price; and downfalls succeed the glorious rise, of all young men unaware of their demise- At the table of destiny, they roll another dice.

When a portrait gets it's place among artifacts, generation after generation will read all stories linked to it. How a poet portraits the whole story in a poem is another story. A valiant effort by Agatha. Congratulations on your achievement. X
