The Painting By Gypsie-Ami Offenbacher-Ferris
Bartholomew Barker of
Living Poetry

Not good enough
Never good enough
Always I am lacking
Hours and hours
I paint and I paint
Always I am slacking
Brushes move to and fro
In and out dipping and flicking
Always I am retracting
No forward movement
Unable to break through
Always I am counteracting
The lake so calm so blue
This painting I will gift to you
Always I am detaching

I love this poem. It might be 1 of my favorites. You have managed to put real emotional content into a rhyming poem. plus I strongly “resemble” some of the stanzas 😀
