Wordle: Relish


I screamed with laughter as I allowed the sticky paint
to kiss the canvas in a variety of strokes and ways
A red spill here, lifted and curled around
and flicked and dotted and dashed
Greens and yellows pass each other
Hit each other and spin and spiral this way
And that
An idea planted firmly lifts from the board
like an image from the silver screen
Abstract it may be
but to the beholder a masterpiece seen

      Thanks, VK. Yes, Spring has sprung again now. Winter called back in the middle of the week, but we are now in sub-tropical temperatures once again. We don’t know whether we are coming or going! ๐Ÿ™‚

      I’m more of a sedate painter, Raili. Although my Inner Picasso is probably screaming to be released.
