The shade of a thought

old pages...

Setting sail

To drift over the world…

This world so frail

With emotions as consort…

 

The wind is watching

As we build empires in our mind…

In gluttony, reproaching

What others have designed…

 

In weightless solitude

We paint the world…

With colors of fortitude

And smiles in shades of gold

We walk this earth alone

The way we’ve painted it…lost in crowds

Until we stumble upon

Another master with his palette of clouds…

Art works and poetry go hand in hand one with nature and the earth shakes with pleasure.

Aloha lovely Ana, you always offer up shades of lovely thought! Nudges us gently to ponder more than just what's on the surface. This speaks to me of our unique journeys. I'm glad my journey is now with another. Inspiring read. Izzy

' Until we stumble upon ~ Another master with his palette of clouds… '

How true, That master always waits, gently, patiently, even for those who think they know the way. You always write sincerely, whether broaching the negative or revelling in the positive, Ana.. Your words inspire a reader to stop a while and see the stars, day or night. .
