The Perfect Canvas - El

THE PERFECT CANVAS

The perfect canvas, the sky.
Gazed, viewed by our naked eyes.
Naturally painted blue
on clear days with added hues.
Pink, orange, red at sunlight.
Black and gold at studded night.
The perfect canvas, the sky.

Back with congratulations for your win with this serene, elemental write Marilene! So fun sky gazing - star gazing with you as you paint your "canvas." Blessings and congratulations.

Thanks so much, Sam. Have not really been writing lately. I'm a voracious reader of crime/mystery novels and I bought four of them and read them all. Just cannot put the books down, needed to read and finish them.

Thanks, Sam. All is quiet now in my front, in my portrait drawing class. Had fun with my daughter touring Paso Robles, Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo and Pismo Beach. My son and his girl friend joined us and then to Santa Maria wine tasting. Drove home and celebrated 4th of July, my fire cracker son turned 41. Have a Blessed Day.
