The Masterpiece <br />I can not take my eyes off it <br />I am transfixed, I stand in awe of the artist <br />who created it, and I wonder... <br />Whose eyes had captured this moment? <br />Whose hands were responsible for such <br />magnificence? <br /> <br />Using colors that defy replication <br />His canvass comes alive <br />Hues subtly changing <br />before my very eyes <br /> <br />Colors blending into each other <br />Shapes morphing together <br />How I wish I could stay <br />To bask in its splendored display forever <br /> <br />Alas! the exhibit was for one day only <br />Tonight it will be gone <br />This masterpiece, unsigned <br />by an artist who titled it simply as <br />'Sunrise' <br /> <br />© 2010 Sonya Florentino<br /><br />Sonya Florentino<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-masterpiece-5/
