Poem based on Japanese Bridge by Monet




At first glance you are erratic and aggressive
But first glances are not always right
Look closer and you see beauty
With your colors that are so bright

Your Autum colors are calming
To those who take time to see
Your bridge shows hope and strength
Of the future you have with me.

I love the part about how "first glances are not always right". It made me want to look at the painting again and again.
