WELCOME TO ARIZONA POET BOB ATKINSON'S BLOG

WELCOME TO ARIZONA POET BOB ATKINSON'S BLOG of Arizona Poetry. Arizona Poetry reflects the multi-cultural heritage of the Southwestern section of North America. Arizona Poetry is reflective of how we became who we are, and how we look at where we are going. Arizona Poetry is us, not you and them.

WILL BE POSTING, FROM TIME TO TIME, MORE STORIES FROM MY BOOK "ARIZONA CULTURAL INFLUENCES - ACI".... THESE ARE TRUE HISTORICAL STORIES WHICH MAY BE RESEARCHED AT THE LIBRARY OR ON LINE, ALTHOUGH I DO NOT CLAIM THEM TO BE HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS, AND HENCE
DO NOT ATTEMPT PERFECT HISTORICAL ACCURACY.
THE ATTEMPT IS TO GET PEOPLE THINKING HOW ALL SIDES FELT ABOUT THE EVENTS, SO AS TO HELP US ALL LEARN MODERATION IN OUR FUTURE ACTIONS.

IN ADDITION, I MAY POST SOME OTHER, NOT SO SERIOUS POEMS I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT LIFE AND LIFE EXPERIENCES.

Impression: Claude Monet by Bob Atkinson


Impression: Claude Monet
(c)2012 Bob Atkinson

Manet knew Monet's name
at first it wasn't smooth
Manet thought someone had taken
his name to be misunderstood

when the confusion ended
they wound up as good friends
in those artistic circles of Paris
through dire political events

Monet was honored to be the one
to start this new artistic trend
was the first “impressionist”
a movement with good ends

title was taken from
a painting Monet had done
Impression: Sunrise” took to be
in the style “impressionism”
 no written form created
no rules clarified
no alabaster statue of
how it's done and why

yet, a movement it became
to add style to the palate
causing many to adopt
this force of free style habit

to achieve a real time look
with light and dark and such
used colors bolder that had been
done on the earlier works of art

they hid their older talents
and brought new techniques to fore
left the world a better place
with new life and much much more
