The Artist




In bottled colors my brush I dip

My thoughts infinite and vast

Into my framed canvas a trip

to a land sans a future or past.

With soft strokes and dabs so deft

I am lost in this utopian land

Emotions! Joy, sorrow bereft

Flow from my meandering hand.

Abstract lines and surreal themes,

Unlock my mind and heart

Stirred by Nature, Life and dreams

Evolves a vision– an art!
