A painting full of turquoise and pink tones in wave-like broad strokes. On top of this acrylic-painted background, there are two turtles of the same size, one in pink and one in green, facing up and down respectively. The turtles are made up of mesmerizing, sparkling beaded patterns.

Poetry

Poetry is a literary art which typically (though not always) is shorter and more stylized than fiction, with a special focus on rhythm, evocation of emotion and feeling. Poetry can be used to refer more abstractly to ideas, and can vary significantly in length, rhyme and voice.
