At my college there is a competition going on for a poetry award. Being in a poetry class, I was immediately drawn to it. I will be sampling my pieces here before putting it in the portfolio to present for the award. Enjoy!
Even as a die-hard LOTR and Hobbit fan, no one compares to my sister. Except maybe Stephen Colbert. While struggling for inspiration, I thought of Smaug who I incidentally dressed up as at the premiere of The Desolation of Smaug (DoS) in my hometown. Since I paint as well, I decided to write a poem about the difficulty of painting Smaug. All Rights Reverved (except for Smaug of course…)
Smaug’s Painting
“You’re focused in my mind’s eye
Like the picture of a sparkling beach
Thin lines of charcoal simply can’t do you justice
With your eyes the colour of a peach
Bright sparks of red
Spit from between your fangs
I try to capture your draconic beauty
But around my canvas your wings hang.”
