I Love my Paintings
Horses, spiders, dragons, fat cats
Hippies, pirates, witches, black bats
Flowers, mushrooms, clouds and such
I love my paintings very much
Cartooning is a language I love to speak
My paints are fluorescent, the brightest peak
I have so much fun drawing up the fey
Painting enlightens me every day

If my Paintings Came to Life
If my paintings came to life
I would be surrounded by ninjas, elves, faeries, gardens,
Mermaids, bees, spiders, bunnies, dragons and mice.
Owls would roost on every table in my living room.
No one else can take credit for this.
All eighty-eight paintings in this room are mine.

I am
I am but the poems I write
I am but the paintings I paint
I am but the songs I sing
I am but the seeds I plant
So many things I am
So many things I am not
I have no end in mind
But to end where I began
I am who I am

PAINTINGS OF THE SOUL
Her story she wished to repaint
With each step, she refined a stroke
Striving to create a perfect picture
An abstract, where every feeling is captured.
In her old portrait
Black was dominant and vibrant
Seeping into every corner of her canvas
Even surpassing the edges.
The paintings of her soul
She sought to redo
Crafting a masterpiece
With an entirely

of loneliness

a unique moment

captured in paint
so difficult

Cypress Paintings
The Met* has an exhibit,
Cypress paintings by Van Gogh.
We joined the crowds and went to see
This most amazing show.
Like all the other patrons,
We snapped photos on our phones,
Except for one lone painting,
Which a rich collector owns.
A guard stood right beside it;
He was there to oversee.
“No photos of this painting!”
He repeated frequently.
The owner said he’d lend

Novice Painter
Surrounded by my paintings around my desk,
Closest one I see the missile launch pad painting,
Under the dark Hawaiian Island skies,
Lighted palm tree and the streak of missile path,
Spent thirty years working there, relates to my heart.
Next, I watch a Bob Ross style painting,
A snow-capped cabin, land and all the trees,
The sky is crimson, with

Paintings of Love - Above
Cozy crimson sky highlighted
Clouds, in corners, gold ignited
Cranes and cuckoos fly exited
Wherefrom is this ringdove?
Compassion in thoughts, words, and deeds
Complying with kind nature's needs
Cosmos cultivates complex seeds...
Is there, midst, a foxglove?
Calmness carves the clandestine cores
Cardinals commence carefree tours
Calcites and corals hug in scores
Cool breeze is on the move

Abstract Paintings Always Attract Horn Haiku
paintings are abstract
brilliant and always attract enigma

while at cinema
we had smelled hard enigma

after we reviewed
agreement must be renewed

Paintings
In the heart,
He paints hues
Hope, faith and love
Wonders from above
In the soul,
He paints tones
Peace and joy
Inspirational prose
In the mind,
He paints shades
Grace and mercy
Light that is worthy
In the spirit,
He paints descriptions
Music and melody
Psalms of His redemption
Paintings, masterpieces
Works of genius, silencing
The darkness, the shadows
With sensitivity and beauty
Flowing from the light of the world
The maker of our hearts

My Love of Colors In My Paintings
My Love of Colors in My Paintings
Tangerine is my go-to color; it makes my paintings pop.
When I am working on an aberdeen sky, I never want to stop.
Obsidian is the paint I use to enhance my cat’s yellow eyes.
Citrine is one of my favorite colors, it looks eerie in my skies.
Green permeates my artwork, it
