Seascape

Seascape

I refuse to believe
in the lack of even
the gentlest zephyr
or swelling tide of sea;
surely you fool me with
a calm ship
on an acrylic —
See!

Limitations

Painting

Everyone sees the myriad colors
Of a free mind at work
I see the downward strokes
Of a left-handed artist

Painted Bird

The painted bird
Forever in mid-flight
On the wall scroll
