A Tribute to Monet

by Sara DeMichele

February 5, 2020

Capturing the essence of the natural world,

Quaint living on the water.

Beauty flowing from blossoming buds,

Glistening wonder against the crystal.

Flowering islands populate the surface.

Gentle breeze skips through the culture,

With the company of soothing melody.

The song of life is left unchanged.

Beams of heaven reflected from the blue,

A shower of light- Salvation.

The display of saturation is refined.

Memory bears anew.

Life will leap forth

Unable to be contained!

Created for freedom,

With purpose unforetold.

Beautiful! Just like a Monet painting... You described the sublime, ethereal quality of the Impressionists. Your use of language highlights the exquisiteness of water and blossoms. The poem is superbly crafted.
