We paint a picture every day
In a fast paced world 
What we are 
Let it be undefined...

Derelict

Huddled wrapped
Cornered, wind abates
Infant slumbers...

Paint this picture 
Made of words
Make blue sky, 
This storm of birds
Paint, brush, 
Canvas, action
Words made 
Upon this paper,
Now, you feel 
The attraction...

The canvas is blank; all blank
You could paint a picture of a plank
With a pirate on board,
That collects eggshells to hoard,
With some iron around his neck, going CLANK....

Wandering into moonglow of years
I recall Grandma's voice lilting
With stories aged by time --
Musings fade now on cushions
Till she rockabyes no more

Image 1.

As platinum clouds drift by,
sea breeze in early evening,
kisses ripples on incoming tide.
Dusk's sun reflects upon veranda,
as nanna's armchair rocks gently.

crystal white dew
on 
pink apple

glitters golden
in morning rays

Paint that picture 
And make your words clear 
Be good-natured 
Always be sincere 
Have a good vision 
Carry yourself with dignity 
Continue to move forward 
With great prosperity...

Can you paint the picture
brushless

Can you sing the words
while mute

Can you dance the lone
fandango

Can you rage
—beyond your youth

All stand
Eyes on door
Hymn begins 


Groom nervous
With Dad
Arrives
Glowing bride

Some paint a picture

Of the glory of war

The rich will get richer

The poor will stay poor

The mourners will mourn

From shore to shore 

The dead will stay dead

Forever more...

Leaves
        dead falling
upon the ground,
piles gathered

bags
  and bags,
     it’s fall again.

Storm 
clouds melt,
sky showers
rainbow colors.

Leaves
dance on hued tree
with raindrops.

Salivating to desecrate
     Her bones
In state

Lacking
     Brains, Heart, Courage
The wizard 
     Capitulates.

If i could paint a picture,
That picture would be light from another world

A world of freedom unknown,
sometime for future,
sometime for present

Sometime when i know its all bitter and cold...

My life's mixed up with logic, gnarly.
I admit I'm confused.  I sure do.
Every picture tells a story,
but stories paint a picture too.
Am I looking at Wuthering Heights, 
or reading The Starry Night?...

Back and Forth, back, forth
Like my memories of yesterday
Like my worries for tomorrow
Where Mothers sit and Soothe
Old bones now sit; Symmetry

Paint my picture with lots of love,
to this time I will enjoy.
Paint my picture with lots of doves, 
so I can feel the sound of love.
Paint my picture with lots of sugar 
so I am sweet to all the world....

In your vintage gold design

you lay in brilliant elegance-

a memory of our yesteryear

held in the highest esteem;

words flew through the air.

Gossamer cobweb
 glistens with
 early morning dew




Spider poised
ready
to entrap
unwary victim

im gonna paint a picture,
a picture with a twist.
im gonna paint a picture,
i'll paint it on my wrist.
and if i paint this picture right,
a fountain will appear.
and then one day,
all my troubles will disapear....

Chairing old thoughts, rocking gently,
Living with chaotic aging blight,
I do keep yearning calmly
To travel day and night
With sun's silent chariot blithely.

Solo bird
Strayed in the
Ocean sky,
Prayed.

Heaven sent
Vulture,
Appeared for rescue.
