fresh paint
Posted: April 3rd, 2011, 6:41 pm
Upon a fresh canvas a dab of paint
becomes a vibrant leaf of emerald life.
Dark veins lead to stems to which branches feint
stout trunk supports branches through windstorms strife.
Sunset skies peek through leaves, gold reflection-
glints off maroon and amber clouds predict storm.
Another stroke some other day changes direction
artist may follow to path of new reform.
Sailing is clear on seltzer's blue water
beyond wake small ripples smooth to clear glass
reflections glow .Artist smiles like a father-
creation a goal you can not surpass.
Not satisfied by visual perception.
White paint makes fresh canvas deception.
