Art created when he was still with his first wife but immensely inspired by the woman who was to become his second wife.

Listen to poem:
The dimensions revealed
Covered over in white
A hint of the layers
Hazed with redirected light
Some spaces to occupy
Deliberately kept empty
Some say I gave nothing
Others see I've given plenty
The beauty of silence
Presented by this
Stand still, close your eyes
It's the softest of kiss
Messages written but hidden from view
All the aspects represent my love for you
How the World I see differently
You have changed the way I see
A landscape in which to be peaceful and free
What is omitted doesn't take from the scene
What is occurring
Compared to what might have been
The space it exists
Step into it, breathe
The only worry being
We may never wish to leave
