The Painter
(For my good friend Aidan)


His eyes hold visions of subtle beauty
His mind filled with magical scenes
Passion flows through is veins
As the painter’s brush lightly caresses
The soft delicate canvas

Hazy images form and take shape
As his hand commands the brush
Bending lines and wisps
To his own imperfect perfection
To the love that burns his soul

Working by light of the moon
His strokes long and even
Silent in the blackness of night
He struggles to reveal his secrets
To the world of the unseeing

Wow, how sweet of you to pen such a beauty for your talented painter.  Your words paint a lovely tribute that I am sure will be cherished for all eternity.  Lovely read my friend.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.
