I speak softly The words I would say But they paint empty As a Van Gogh sky Minus swirled stars To grace the blue Imagined In the black backgrounds lain down Layer after layer with care And resolve to hide The white Underneath. Only the thoughts Of lips graced In gentle brush of mine With blush of unsure Add the color In swirls Of Remember. Gallery halls Echo clicked heels And deserted Walls cling to the mirage Art once was found Inside Something I was Sweeping the pieces Off marble My syllables broken Are now ground again And mixed For the next time I paint you. |

This portait of words flows a liquid beauty of layers...syllables smoothly mixed fall softly upon the hearts of those who dream of the poetic flow found here in their own artistry. Thank you... -Patricia |

Brad.. thank you Raph... that word and I are not usually thought of in the same sentence.. lol thanks bud.. patricia... the liquid beauty of layers lies in the unfolding of moments..some remembered and some wished for... I do little to paint them with words or to even hint at the delicate way they sometimes touch us... thank you for the nice words... they are appreciated |

Very, very excellent writing, Capt. Ron. I really enjoyed reading it. I've missed you, too, so I think I'll go to "Sanctuary" and read your post. Thank you, Sitr, for sharing your talented poetry.  Hugs,  Ethel |

The softly brushed words from your unique palette are always worthy of a rest upon the finest canvas, and within my mind. |

Ethel.. you sweetheart are always far too kind with your praise... but I thank you.. lol Icebox.. thanks for stopping by and the words. Midnight... your thoughts seem far more delicate in reply than the rough hewn thoughts I share here.. thank you for the kindness.. |

Dangit Ron you make my brain hurt trying to comprehend the nuances of the things left unsaid hiding there between your lines...  Somebody pass the aspirin... Oh yeah guess I should say artfully done as always. [This message has been edited by sea_of_okc (05-23-2003 03:20 PM).] |

'Gallery halls Echo clicked heels And deserted Walls cling to the mirage Art once was found Inside Something I was' So if I get my anti-slacker innoculation updated, will I be able to write like this? Wondering, does it come in pill form... |

Ron Art once was found Inside Something I was so much feeling painted, brush stroke layering color until the finishing words fuel a sigh. Hugs! |
