ARTSPEAK! Portraits poem after "Girl with a Pearl Earring"
Hello and welcome to day 26 of ARTSPEAK! Portraits, my 2017 National Poetry Month poem-a-day project, during which I am looking, listening with my spirit ear, and asking these subject to share with me their secrets.But first: Be sure to check in with birthday-girl Renee at No Water River to see how our Progressive Poem is progressing! Happy Birthday, Renee!
Also: earlier this month I visited Oakwood University and taught a session called "When Poetry Meets Picasso" on, you guessed it, writing poems inspired by art! Here's what the beautiful, talented Dr. Kem Roper blogged about it.

Today's painting is one I've been putting off, because it is so popular! I think there's added pressure when the painting is famous and already means something to the viewer. How can my poem bring something fresh to the painting? How can my poem not disappoint? Well, there are no answers to these questions! I can only write the poem that wants to be written by me. Which means setting aside all those expectations and just doing it.
Here's what the Girl with a Pearl Earring told me:
The Way You Look at Me
- after “Girl with a Pearl Earring” by Johannes Vermeer
as if I am all rainshimmer
and skyglaze
as if I am a waterfall
of moonlight
tumbling out of an apple
as if I am not borne
of salt and currents
as if I've never been lost
as if I don't grit
against your teeth
as if there was never
any oyster –
only you
- Irene Latham

So... it's a love poem! Love poems are totally my default setting. :)
