30 Day Poetry Challenge: Day 8: DRAW
Day 8: Draw
Word taken from The True Secret of Writing by Natalie
Goldberg, page 212
Draw me in
run a line along my form
capturing this fleeting shape
before it transforms
Hand me my purple crayon
so I may shape the path as I take it
discovering the magic
hidden in the blank space
I'll take a sketch book to the top of Montmartre
brave the endless stairs
find myself at the foot of Sacré-Cœur
shining white in the bright spring light
there I will be high enough
to sketch my desire
my heart
a rough sketch of what is to come
I'll take an impression of what is here
a page from the master's books
and fill it out
with bright, bold, dabs of color
