STRANGE
COINCIDENCE
(A Valentine
Mirage)
Slender,
well trained the fingers
that hold
vital brushes in hand
selected
with great skill and care
mixed
colors blended just so rare
on
a well used unlimited palette -
deft strokes
applied broad or fine
to new
blank canvass, anticipating
the transformation
of what it is, that
the artist
has envisioned in her mind.
The hues,
shades and colors slowly taking form
are indicative
that there is more than the norm
for these
are reflective of the warmth and beauty
gracing
the heart of the artist, now streaming forth
as she
with loving patience, adroitness and ability
composes,
creates, her new piece of innovative work.
Her art,
so pure, lively, engaging
inadvertently
caught my attention,
for though
as poet I am limited to words
which
fall far short of the power of the artist,
even though
selected with care and meaning,
I grace
my poems with art and illustration
and thus
stumbled innocently upon this Artist
one of
wonderful, rich, new artistic creations
who graciously
granted permission to use her art.
Perhaps
there is some kindred artistry at work
as each
creates, that which best reflects their heart
it would
be nice to have a loving spirit in this world
that would
represent an enchanting Valentine Mirage.
