The Pattern of an Artist
Beauty falls from head to paper

The Pattern of an Artist
Circles whisper into circles,
quiet echoes stitched in thought,
colour leans against colour,
as if it knows where it belongs.
Nothing here is placed by accident,
every curve remembers its reason.
A pulse moves beneath the surface,
soft, then sudden, then still,
like breath held in painted silence,
like a secret waiting to be seen.
The eye travels and never settles,
caught in a dance without ending.
Threads of gold and green awaken,
tiny worlds inside each shape,
each mark a voice that lingers,
each line a road that bends.
You feel it more than you name it,
a language older than speech.
There is no straight path here,
only turning, only return,
a quiet storm of careful making,
a restless, steady hand.
The artist leans into the unknown,
and finds a pattern staring back.
And in that mirror of motion,
a truth begins to grow,
that beauty is not perfection,
but the courage to begin.
To place one mark beside another,
and trust the unseen will hold.
So the pattern keeps on breathing,
never finished, never still,
a living map of wonder,
a soft defiance of the void.
And somewhere in its endless turning,
the artist finally feels whole.

I've been writing poetry since the age of 10. With pen in hand, I wander the realms unseen. The pen holds power; ink reveals thoughts. A poet may speak truth or weave a tale. You decide. Let pen and ink capture you ❤️#Marie381UkWrites

Who would have thought you could construct such a deep poem from an image? BTW - the image makes my head hurt. 😁😁
