Welcome to my website!
 
 

Here it is all things pertaining to the literary,

all things "life," all things beautiful, all things veritas (truth).

 
Join me in my musings regarding what it is about poetry & art that draws us back to sonnets by Shakespeare, or limericks by e.e. cummings, or so many others whose words may or may not make literal sense to us -- yet keep us mystically drawn to their words, coming back for more!
Irish poet Oscar Wilde is quoted saying, "Life imitates art far more than art imitates life.” If this is true, then why not paint a life as vibrant and colorful as one of Picasso's paintings? Or as intricately divine as a mosaic art piece made of bits of stained glass [is it not simply broken glass made purposeful by purposeful strokes of elucidation and a will for it to be?]...?
 
 Come, friend:
You are welcome to share along my journey.

All that is lovely,

all that is beauty,

is but a visage of a dream undisturbed.

 

Look closely enough and you will see

that each masterpiece is a creation

of broken,

uneven

lines and curves:

a conglomeration of incompleteness and imperfections,

synthesized to make many parts one WHOLE.

 

This is beauty in ART and Life.

-Vanessa D. Nesbit
