Life In Black And White Poem by Rini Shibu

Life In Black And White

Rating: 5.0


Painted my life in black and white
On starry night the moon was bright
Used the brush to prime the canvas
Dipped in black to shade my past
Painted the colorful song of life
Like music played on piano keys
Image with hard line and soft lines
And shades of lights and shadows
No colors to distract the beauty
Clearer image towards the destiny.

Hi Rini, This poem is a revelation. That the colors of Black and White, often scorned by us, has such beauty! ! Choice of words you have used to enhance the image is inimitable wonderful, Used the brush to prime the canvas - -to PRIME the canvas- Wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! And then, Dipped in black to shade my past! ! ! ! ! Your poem has left my entire body almost trembling! ! The metaphor of music for painting left me panting: : Like music played on piano keys Image with hard line and soft lines... And shades of lights and shadows... No colors to distract the beauty - - - The statement that colors DISTRACT beauty is, to state it most mildly, startling... And of course, Clearer image towards the destiny. Very novel line of thinking.., A sharp look at the other side of life. Your ability to find colors on the colorless canvas! ! ! Good! ! A 10+++++
