I love your very artistic poem to be the canvas of your love is a very imaginative description of how you you want to see yourself in your relationship.

The painting is fabulous.

Well done
Mary

Lovely art and poem. Did you do the artwork or was just inspired to write from it? You should join the group of us who will be writing from artwork just for fun once a month. Our next challenge is next month. If you are interested pm me with your email address and I will send you artwork chosen by padumachitta.

The small type font especially in purple is hard for my eyes to read but the poem was lovely.

    Oh Teresa, I would love that :) It was from the artwork I was sent on Facebook. Thank you hon, for the review and I will send my email now. I tried to the point of throwing something to get the font bigger and keep the shape, so I finally settled, sorry!

A very passionately expressed poem. Somehow the thought of using one's body as canvas and painting on it leads me to have erotic thoughts.

Though your poem only talks about the passion to protect and love, I had different thoughts through out, I must confess. A very stunningly vivid image floats through my mind and I want to play with my lover making his body be a canvas and what not (evil grin ^_^)

Kudos to the writing!

All the best!

I really enjoyed this exuberant poem. I admire poets who tackle the big subjects and do so in such an original way. I thought the use of the extended metaphor was highly effective and each development of that metaphor was appropriately achieved - e.g. black lines to convey boundaries that keep you safe, red capturing his passion to colour your lips etc. I also like the repeated use of interrogatives to capture the urgency of the feelings, which is strengthened further by the decision to mark the end of sentences with commas. The last line is a masterstroke: the words 'radiant' implies both the vibrant colours of the painted canvas and happiness of the writer, ideas that are given further emphasis by the use of line division. The only words and phrases that don't work for me is 'hue' and 'residing therein': the former is a rather old-fashioned word that for me conflicts with the contemporary feel of the poem, and the latter phrase sounds rather legalistic and formal for such an intimate poem. Nevertheless, neither detract from the poem's overall success. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

    Before writing this reply, I went to your page to see the caliber of the writer that had given me this lovely and touching review. There I found THE AFFAIR...simply stunning! I will go back and leave a review after this :)

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this time-consuming review you left for me. I appreciate every word. I realize the 2 words you have a problem with are as you describe but, I am old-fashioned in some things myself. As a whole, I am just delighted that you thought enough about my work to leave this. :)

    Smiling

    Always,

G'day Missy. Wow! What a creation this is. The picture, the layout and form are quite spectacular. Then we have the content! Cikey, that is simply superbly mind blowing and mouth watering poetry. I wanted more but sadly it had to end somewhere. Sheer brilliance, congratulations mate. Cheers Fez
