Welcome back to Creative!
This week we are proud to feature the work of Matthew Milotakis, a junior at Roger Williams University with a double major in English Literature and Cultural Studies.
We hope you enjoy it!
A Gentle Stroke of Spring
The soft colors of peaches mix with strawberries,
The dots of watermelon seeds fill the spaces in between,
Quiet caresses of honeydew sing
With underripe avocados underneath.
All of this signifies the gentle strokes of spring.
A blank canvas to start off with
Layers of paint create subtle shapes
To create pictures of kind petals;
Which catch rain drops during
The gentle strokes of spring.
The fragility of paper crumbles
At the sight of a smudged paint,
But we all have to remember
That when we turn away, they return again,
The gentle strokes of spring.
