Reflections abound a symphony of silence surrounds in an embrace
Afar the fiery orb bids its final farewell to lingering shadows of day
Tardy birds relish the dying embers as homeward they wend their way
Vignettes endure of treasured moments a word of your hand in mine
Selfish am I in my desire for your presence for our thoughts to align
Together and apart we spent fleeting seconds in a multitude of years
Nimble minutes of infinite consciousness leaving remnants of fears
Thank you for fun-filled moments laughter nonsensical joys shared
For your intelligence compassionate friendship showing you cared
Paintings and poem by me...
And you told me on my most recent Sunday Selections that you weren't an artist? You are a stranger to the truth.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh, EC...I just play around, dabble once in a while, for my own entertainment. I've not done any painting or drawing for a while. I feel the need to do so again...soon...
DeleteThanks for coming by. :)
Very nice, I'm impressed because I can neither paint nor poem. I agree with EC, you are an artist.
ReplyDeleteHey, River. I've had a strong urge, desire, lately to do more painting and drawing. I'm going to have to scratch the itch, I think.
DeleteThanks for coming by. :)
lovely, are those water colors ?
ReplyDeleteHi Linda...no...I used acrylics with these ones.
DeleteThanks for coming by. :)
The poem and pictures are lovely, Lee. You should continue to do more.
ReplyDeleteHey, Arleen...I should...I know I should..but space is mostly the problem these days.
DeleteThanks for coming by. :)
I like rhyming verses: day,way/ mine,align/ years,fears/ shared, cared. That's poetry for me, and it goes well with the subject - reflections on migrating birds and on the presence of a loved one.
ReplyDeleteAs for the two paintings - pity you've displayed only two. I believe you've got more of them, to show your obvious talent.
G'day, DUTA...yes..I've quite a few paintings and drawings that I've done...hanging on walls and in folders. I've a pile of poems I've written stored on my computer, too.
DeleteThanks for coming by. :)
Both the paintings and verse are beautiful. You're very talented, Lee.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sandra for your kind comment. :)
DeleteBeautiful! You are an artist and poet.
ReplyDeleteHey, messymimi...and I don't know it!

ReplyDeleteHey, Andrew. I kind of like the first painting, too...did you click on it to enlarge it? It hangs on the wall here behind my monitor and computer.
