"Golden vagues of chevelure
Bright sapphires sparkle in her face
Her arcane presence tenses air
Lightning fast intellect
Motherly compassion and care
Feelings of trust given to the unworthy
Darken her sparkle forever
Tragic love fades her smile
Her hair turning white
Gone is the maiden innocence
Replaced by strength, coldness and bitterness
Can anyone save her?"
MATISSE MAIDENS
Maidens..so many.
Marguerite
dressed so neat
Laurette and
Lorette so sad, so sweet.
The upstairs maid with Greta Moll
his still life doll.
Odalisques
curves and shapes,
in colour and drapes.
Chapeaux and Chevelure
with locks astray.
A sister or two,and a wife,
green with envy,
to paint
and portray
See my cartoons @matissemaidens.blogspot.com

The wild hair of the trees
lay down on the ground.
Others burn up in a blue smoke.
The severed branches in small heaps.
I saw, in the middle of the sawdust,
The pieces of the great plane tree,
Where we carved our names.
The drawn heart, smiled at me,
Even with its sap tears,
the wounded sapwood
a kind of last farewell.

La chevelure sauvage des arbres
s'est couchée sur le sol.
D'autres se consument
en fumées bleues.
Les branches sectionnées en petit tas.
J'ai vu, au milieu de la sciure,
Les billots du grand platane,
Où nous avions gravés nos noms.
Le cœur dessiné, me souriait,
Même avec ses larmes de sève,
d'aubier blessé,
en une sorte de dernier adieu.
