Painting
Painting.
A spatter in the sky?
A cloud? A shroud?
A beautiful butterfuly?
Is it green?
Is it blue?
Is it another
Type of hue?
A child points
And squeals delight.
“Look mommy, it’s a bird,
A bird in flight.”
The mother nods
While seeing
Not a bird
But an alien being.
And stands behind
He’ll find.
He looks at it
And studies hard
And sees a magnificient
Playing card.
Who is the artist
That created this?
“Meow,” he says.
(What a mess!)
