A Painting

It's amazing what can be captured on canvas

By Bekah JimenezPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

A tavern wench sings a song

No one else can hear,

But generations and a tavern full of people

All will end their ear.

A large dog gnaws a small bone

He will never finish.

A cat stalks rat who's close to its hole,

But the rat will never vanish.

Dusty men on frosty running horses

Race across a golden plain.

Are these men chasing love or gold

Or just boys playing a game?

People and animals frozen in time

Captured by pencil or brush.

Put down on on canvas by someone's inspiration,

Never moving but still, in a rush.

About the Creator

Bekah Jimenez

I love writing. I've been writing since I learned how. I'm currently working on three novels - two fantasies and a psychological thriller. I can't wait to find a publisher!
