Flower Paintings and A Poem of Rising Passion and Answered Prayer
With a couple of outdoor art shows coming up, I decided creating small paintings would be a good idea. There’s always room for a small piece of art to brighten up your home, workplace or cottage. These canvases are all Acrylic on Canvas, 6 x 6 inches, $50 each.
Brilliant colours, faces open to the sun, passion, the very essence of flowers reminding me of the love I have for my life partner and of a poem written as we drew closer to a life commitment to each other.
Step by cautious step
we draw closer.
to what?
We do not know.

Two fiery signs
crossing paths
igniting passion and desire.

When we met again I remembered
you – the teenage boy –
always quick with a joke and a dimpled smile.
What has happened in these few short weeks?
My life no longer a straight and predictable line.

Yes, I handed God a list
but never expected a response.

And now, here you are,
the answer to my prayer.
My best friend, lover, confidante.
