Aged Beauty

There was a beautiful painting 
Sitting high on the wall
Painted perfectly 
Pitching pridefully
Partial color
Taking time
To reveal its true definition 

Admired by many
As guest walk by
Astounded
By hard work and dedication

The effort was less
Purity at its best
With silence
It caress
Something royal
Like a crest

Worshipped everyday
As i leave home
So precious
It could light up an entire room

Sing to me
A lovely tune
Remind me
Of why I painted you
For years to come 
Ill pass it off
To show many
Where you come from

An Original 
With an array 
Of beauty everlasting
Priceless
And fragile

This is excellent. I can really identify with this. I paint oil paintings. Thank you for sharing.
