A lazy wash runs down the page.
Pastels like springtime fill the space.
flowers like tender forget me nots,
come to life there on the spot!
With greens and blues to relate the story
and pinks and purples in all their glory.
But when white light falls on the page.
The wondrous colors begin to engage
leaving a cool and peaceful feeling.
a breath of fresh air at each new viewing!

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:
The poem "Watercolors" effectively uses vivid and colorful imagery to convey the beauty and tranquility of a watercolor painting. The use of language is rich and descriptive, painting a mental picture for the reader that mirrors the physical act of painting.
However, there are areas where the poem could be improved. The rhythm and meter of the poem appear to be inconsistent. For example, the line "flowers like tender forget me nots," is noticeably longer than the other lines, disrupting the flow of the poem. It could be beneficial to revise the poem with a consistent meter in mind to enhance the musicality and rhythm of the piece.
Additionally, the poem could benefit from more varied sentence structures. Most lines in the poem are declarative sentences, which can make the poem feel monotonous. Incorporating different sentence types, such as interrogative or exclamatory sentences, could add more dynamism and interest to the poem.
Lastly, while the poem does a good job of describing the colors and feelings associated with the watercolor painting, it could delve deeper into the symbolism or emotional resonance of these elements. For example, what does the "white light" symbolize? How does the "cool and peaceful feeling" relate to the broader themes or messages of the poem? Exploring these questions could add more depth and complexity to the poem.

I agree with this critique, although it was fun to write,
the poem could definately be improved.
A rush of color
To brighten anyone's day. I can see them rolling down the page.i like how you reference a fresh outlook with every new viewing as each patron will see your works different than the last. Good job. Only thing I could suggest would be to maybe break this into stanzas.
Warm, comfortable words of wisdom!
Thank you Rose!
