Comments on: Portrait http://ravenswingpoetry.com/2008/08/31/portrait/ The Poetry of Nicole Nicholson Thu, 16 Feb 2012 02:31:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: ravenswingpoetry http://ravenswingpoetry.com/2008/08/31/portrait/#comment-1103 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 20:34:35 +0000 http://ravenswingpoetry.wordpress.com/?p=534#comment-1103 Thank you, everyone.

This was difficult to write, considering I don’t know that much about Chuck Close. But his face…seemed to form out of a mist in my mind, and I imagined it was like that for the artist when she created this painting. I’ve never seen a fingerprint painting, and this was intriguing.

I es0pecialliy like “collapsed spine.” Well, the whole last line is surprising. There’s a great tone of questioning here that moves the poem forward.

I’ve enjoyed the short time I’ve had to visit here today and I certainly will visit more often and whenever time permits. Your poetry is very soul inspired and certainly touches my heart. I especially liked “Story Teller,” “A QUEEN’S EPISTLE” and “Edge.” I was absolutely blown away by those, and those are the only one’s I’ve had time to read today; so from what I’ve read, I know I’ll be pleasantly intrigued by the others as well. Thanks again for sharing your art! Peace, Light and Love to you and yours. . . CordieB.

What an interesting way of creating a portrait, and it sounds like an interesting way of creating a poem as well. The last words here leap out at me, “collapsed spine.” So unexpected!

These fibs delve into the portrait so well. I especially liked the first and last fibs. Have a nice night.
