When Inspiration Strikes

Sweet conveyances, creatively structured in a poetic presentation, precise swings of a sharp blade taking the breath of its victim with tender notations. I found this write beaming with meaningful views.

Comment from Liberty Justice
"When inspiration strikes" poet exclaims that one should paint it right then. If it is thoughts and ideas from one's muse, we need to write these things down before we forget these. Very inspirational! Liberty justice

Gee whiz! You almost described perfectly how i paint my abstracts! (not really) A fun, cute, witty poem of a young, innocent, random artist!

Comment from evesayshi
In my opinion, a striking write in the form described. I admire your fortitude in commitment and appreciate the effort employed, one which I do not choose to attempt myself. While the rhyme is pure in the stanzas, it is dissonant for me at line's end in stanzas 2 and 3, and the poem appears contrived for the form's purpose, rather than beauty and emotional expression...

Very many thanks for stopping by to review, Eve. Much appreciated. Thank you, too, for your comments about the rhyming and the somewhat contrived expression. These early French forms are fairly restrictive and do not always translate well into English, which has fewer rhyming options. Best wishes, Tony

You are very welcome, Tony, a very dedicated write indeed...Eve

Cheers, Tony;
-what a glorious, humorous, and completely and delightfully well written presentation of the beauty and innocence of creation.
-The use of the picture of a child painting on a piece of paper is an ideal and relative to this conceptual theme of your poem. A perfect picture for creative ingenuity.
-You really composed this Rondeau to its fruition And perfection.
-How you developed this poem was very amorously amusing From a child standpoint and looking at from a adult's perspective.
-Good rhyming and rhythm helps with the enjambment to close smoothly and created a conceptual theme that's understandable.
-Thanks for sharing this, Tony, and take care and have a good one especially with all that family and friends that love you dearly.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Rondeau. You got a very determined abx talented little artist who seems to get easily inspired by a paint brush or two dipped in paint.

Very many thanks for stopping by to review, Sandra. Much appreciated. She's determined all right! Also, with a father who also paints, she gets quite a bit of encouragement. Best wishes, Tony

Comgratulations, here we have another of your poetic triumphs, this time sculpted as a rondeau but sculpted in your usual richness of rhymes and sweet metrical cadences.

Comment from MissMerri
I love this form. And of course, I love the creative theme of inspiration. Your illustration is SO cute too. My favorite phrase... " embrace your muse with love." This is such good advice too.., reminding all of us to hop right on it when inspiration strikes. Thanks Tony! A great Rondeau indeed.

Comment from Pantygynt
An ambidextrous rondeau or a rondeau on ambidextrousness. The resultant picture looks as though another Dali has been at works. Perhaps a touch of genius lurks there. There was a time like last year, that rondeaux were very popular on FS. I guess these things move in cycles. Godd to see one making an appearance again.

Thanks, Jim. I imagine that two-handed painting might lead to a rather fractured end product, with both hands working in opposite directions. A painting doubtless destined to become an abstract rendition of split personality or some such nonsense!
Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi, Tony;
Thank you so much for sharing this delightful rondeau dealing with the fleeting appearances of the muse. I am luckier than most--my muse is quite prolific and rarely lets me have any peace.
However, there are so many who stare at the blank page. It must be maddening.

Thanks, Patty. That blank page is only maddening when it turns out to have more merit than the marks that are put upon it!

Very profound! Thank you
