Quote of the Week!

"Painting is poetry which is seen and not heard, and poetry is a painting which is heard but not seen."

~Leonardo da Vinci

I thought this was a beautiful quote so I wanted to share it!

Great quote! I've always said I can write a better picture than I can draw. And for me, there's something very lyrical about a perfect picture, or even nature's perfect sunsets.

Sunset
AE Rought

Golden fury burning
on a backdrop
of amber silk,
behind
the stark beauty
of black lace trees
rooted
in the sand.

Beautiful poem, AE. Thank you for sharing it.

Words can create a picture just as paint can. Both are equally things of beauty.
