Brush and Canvas


The eyes drop
soft canvas
the brush moves to explore
each valley and
rolling hill
light and dark
stopped
frozen
defined
by each shadow and touch

two play as one


What is it?
Why do you look
Away?
What tears
should you hide from
my face?

What secrets lie within
that brush and paint reveal
But I cannot see?

The brush finds paint
and dips into Blue
away from the canvas

It paints my love upon you

Such strong sentiment and meaning in such few words. Excellent writing.

Corinne-

I chanced to see this
'masterpiece' and judged
it Best Of Show
