The Journey

The journey

Pastels painting over cracks and crevices
cuts in canvas tapestry of life

Oils spilled on mosaics of passion
broken shards and fragmentations

Pencil drawings sketchy rubbers
contestations smudge enlighten darkness

Inks and doodles careful blue prints
fill fulfil meaning flowers colour life

Memories chiselled on tombstones 
caress and blossom in purple and red

The journey is full of broken bottles but only determination that clears the path.

Absolutely true. And the broken bottles can be mended/amended into a colourful mosaic. Many wishes, Kai
