I know this is another villanelle, but I wanted to create a poem about the interconnectedness of art in our work, and this is inspired by the art of my wonderful Muse, who always inspires me.
I've loved Lissie since I first heard heard her, and I first heard this Fleetwood Mac cover in a pub in Shrewsbury, and it has a perfect sentiment.

Painting pictures with words is such a lovely sentiment. Well done.
I so love this poem it’s very different from your usual poetry ♥️
Oooo, exotic herbs and exquisite fruits, I loved that. Beautiful Villanelle!
This one speaks to me on so many levels. I work with words, threads, paints, and so on, so it feels almost custom made for me. Thank you, Mike. 🥰
