There is a painting at the art gallery, That I have a very strong affection for; It is a man who calls to me from the past, He lived in the year 1670, long ago. Long hair swept back from his face, And those eyes so dark and fathomless; Eyes full of passion and desire, He does not smile yet I still adore him. I want to reach out for this handsome man, For he seems to be beckoning to me; Come, is his soothing whisper echoing deeply, Dignified his demeanor yet I know he is romantic. Oh but if I could step within this frame, Be in his world and in his time just for a moment; He would caress my lips with his fingers, And hold me within his strong arms. And we would love each other forever, He knows already that my heart is his alone; We would entwine in desire and passion hungrily, Oh yes, I have a strong affection for him. But this is but an old painting on a wall, And a tear falls as I reach out to touch his hand; Then he is kissing me with lips so demanding, And I am with him within this frame, forever. ___________________________ October 12, 2015 Poetry/Verse/He Has My Heart Copyright Protected, ID 15- 716-623-0 All Rights Reserved.

This is wonderful, BW, and I'm not surprised, as I adore your work ... both my mom and sis are artists of renown in New England, and my mom raised us to be able to recognize the great artists by their brush strokes and styles, so Art has been a large part of my life, and this was such an exquisitely-penned piece of art in itself ... I'm fav-ing! Congrats!

A geat painting shares a similar secret with that of great love my Wings of Fire which is originality...there is a romantic destiny in this poem, a one of a kind passion...J.A.B.

I love to the Art Institute her in Chicago. I seem to get lost in the paintings for hours. I really like how you describe your love for the subject in the painting
