Dabbling at Art — a Quadrille
The trail was hardscrabble
and loose sienna sand
bluejays singing babble
sky grey and bland
over boulders I grappled
as gait became unsteady
leeside shade was dappled
paint and canvas at the ready
the clouds begin to part
I begin dabbling at my art
word count 44
For dVerse Quadrille – dabbling

This poem rolls out of tongue so nicely! Loved the alliterations and rhymes ~ Jay

How beautiful. I love the rhyme scheme here. Moab is just gorgeous, isn’t it?

Thank you, yes Moab is awesome. I’m always surprised that it is so much larger yet less known than it’s cousin, Zion National Park.

I love Moab… it must be hard to capture in art…

Oh yes, there is a little gallery we used to visit in town, and of course there was always at least one ambitious artist pulled over in a turn out space, easel up, pallet out pondering the light. Ahhhh such good times. 🙂
