Paint Me


be my artist
sketch the line
I will tenderly cross it
canvas in sweet pastel
brush that swirls my sky
dipped in watercolor
under moonlight
echo of my shadow
played in light
still a life
breathing
original oil
you are the dance of color
tinted eye nectar
unframed passion
be my artist
paint me

“all romantics meet the same fate”…Joni Mitchell

And I was just thinking of getting back to my art table. Been away too long.
This just nudged me a little closer Helen.
Beautiful images here!

No matter what I read from you, your energy is clear and precise. I love your balance of fire and soft-sultriness. Always a pleasure to catch your poetry.

Love,
