A whole week done! Well done! Today’s challenge is to write a your choice of poetry form inspired by a patron saint.
If you’re having trouble choosing, this tool may be able to inspire you. |
| Image source: A CNN gallery of images entitled “Who is your patron saint?”. The painting is called “The Forerunners of Christ with Saints and Martyrs” by Fra Angelico as part of an altarpiece. |
Alternatively, you can seek inspiration in the Wikipedia “On This Day” article.
[Image description: A colour painting done in the Mediaeval style of around 65 human figures in three rows against a gold background. Most of the figures are looking as though they're heading in a series of queues towards the left of the picture. Some appear to be talking to each other, and a couple are looking towards the viewer. All have gold haloes, and they're all standing so close to each other that they overlap. They are dressed in a variety of clothes from different eras in a variety of colours, though blue, black, green, pink, and a kind of light, reddish-orange predominate. Some are dressed as monks, bishops, or nuns, others as kings, some as nobles, and one as something resembling a Roman soldier. They mostly have very pale skin, though a few of them are tan. Many of them appear old or middle-aged, though not all, and the vast majority of the ostensibly female saints are ranged in the bottom of the three rows. End image description.]
