How to Paint

Sink into the thing you see
Till it becomes a part of thee
Then search the length and breath of it
It’s inner core its sense of fit.

Breathe it’s very dense of breath
Feel its awe and sense of death
Blend into its ring and chime
How it deals its part in time.

Grow with it till full in grace
Take its stand in common place.
Nourish on the inner glow
Reap the essence you must know.

Live with it a one on one
Stay with it till you are done.
Then you take a brush in faint and
Paint and paint and paint and paint

Till you reach its spirits goal
Then you have painted its soul.

(smiles) Oh Seymour, I just love how you paint words, this is beautiful, may we all become accustomed to what makes us happy and paint ourselves and render us in the colors! (smiles) I love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I usually just hire someone...and I've never seen them go to these extremes however. I think I'll just get vinyl siding this time around though.....Sy, you are truly a wise old fart with a mind that's "way out there" somewhere.....

...and upon the canvas you speak of,
you bring love to life, and life to love...

'Live with it a one on one
Stay with it till you are done.
Then you take a brush in faint and
Paint and paint and paint and paint'

I tried that ... I ran out of numbers !

You not only 'paint' ... you've perfected word-art~
Love n' hugs~

It is easy when the canvas is life.

Thank you.

Ah my friend but I have seen your work, and it is hard tell whose soul was painted, as I see a part of yours in my scribblings

The most valuable thing you own is a smile, wear it, and share it.
