Prompt: Describe the painting “The Gentle Sea“ by Matthew Wong (2017) without explicitly describing the painting in a poem.
The Tired Sun and his Gentle Sea Pulled down by the day’s weight,
His head can no longer hold itself up
His golden hair has lost its shine
And he sinks lower and lower
Slipping away from sight, As he goes to bed for the night
She sees the weight pulling him down,
But she is there to catch him if he falls
She spends her days observing him
Waiting to hide him from view And to cover him with her blanket of blues
For she never stops, and she never sleeps
