Art Assignment

Assignment: Use a piece of art (other than photography) as inspiration for a poem.

Inspiration Piece: Sunday Afternoon on the Island of Grand Jatte by Georges Seurat



Dot to Dot

Hot dot. Point of light.
Find a mate and get it right.

A point joint. Every shade
Gathers, a lovely painting has made.

Woman, man, arm in arm,
Dressed for all the world to charm.

Two by two, they come for fun
And spend a lovely day in the sun.

The day's rays beating down.
Throw your worries, let them drown

In dreams streams, an ocean blue.
Send them far away from you.

Frail sail, flutters in the wind.
Never wish the day to end.
