The Essence of You

With brush in hand

I stroke gently across the canvas

searching for the beauty I feel within

 

Trying to capture the essence of your beauty

but I feel inadequate to do you justice

but I continue painting

 

After a few moments

I can see your beauty as it

transforms from my mind

I can almost reach out and touch you

 

I can feel your heart beat with mine

you come alive

you are my creation

the essence of my mind...

Lovely write. I also paint and really love doing that more than writing. It feels great to have something come alive on canvas..Valentine
