Upon the linen easel of our life
are Picasso's and Rembrandt's
and of course the serious collectors
the owners of fine galleries
but like sometimes being in love
we secretly admirer from afar
just like the exhibit of the evening stars
shining brightly for all the world to see
and when the diamond curtain of the night
descends over his canvas bright
no one can deny, he is the artist
within the power of the sky
his signature is for us to share
written within gold starlight of our hair

"To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides."

Quite enjoyed the very strong opening image, Victoria -- very nice!

You remind me of someone that I met somewhere else.

The first 2 lines drew me in, Victoria...and the rest of the poem certainly lived up to expectations.
Excellent writing!
