Space

Today the space becomes activated.
I begin to push and pull.
The forms take on their own meaning
and I feel free.

magic

The magic can be so elusive.
Can I count on it to come?
Keep coming back to the page.
It will always turn up.

wedding

A wedding is a dance of two people's
lives coming together.
A painting is a marriage of paint, paper
and ideas becoming one.

dance

It's a dance, a song.
There is always music.
It flows in then out through my arm,
into the brush, out through the paint, soaking me.

today

Today the shapes become a face.
Her eyes remain closed.
She has no words and no voice.
Yet, she feels everything.

shapes

The space does not become actived
until the mind switches to the other gear.
