Meeting the Bar at dVerse Poets with Bjorn looking at impressionistic art
layers of light
flecks of colour
giant’s velvet
birthday cupcake
or thatched hut
is sunlit stack of
bovine manna
dried muffin-top
will-o-wisps in wind
dense center holds
heat of long day
gleaned stubble field
rests in cool shade
robust wet dabs
of painter’s palette
reflects sweat of
villagers’ harvest

I love what you did with this image…visions of cupcake , muffin top and bovine manna are great. I read this prompt when it came out and felt a bit bamboozled by it. I think you did very well.

I agree. Your poem is a very creative reflection of Monet’s work. Now I am dreaming of cupcakes.

I also like how you used the painting! That shape, repeated in your write. Lovely!
