"Painting With Words"

With words she's been painting

Expressing her thought

Emotions all gathered

Until they've been caught

An artist is working

With paper and pen

With words she is striving

A picture to send

With the stroke of her "brush"

A stanza is born

A page filled with wonder

That her words adorn

You'll see by her message

A wonder filled day

She's "painting" with pleasure

Her words will now say

So off in the chasing

Of words and their sound

A picture is forming

A poem will be found!

- I loved the article in the Awake entitled "Painting With Words" as I always wanted to be a literal artist - thus was thrilled when brothers said a poet was painting with words! -
