Every now and then, one tries to paint a picture
that opens a door and serves as a stepping
stone to new dimensions. ‘To draw something is
to try to capture it FOREVER’. This forms the
foundation for my love for painting.

a curvy, well-worn road but now the travelers are gone;
Wind chimes in the porch wait for someone to stir them,
their music will again travel across the silent valley, alone.

on cracked door, through it someone once carried his bride;

sweet memories when children played seek and hide. feeling. Words when combined with metaphors in
rhyming pattern would make less sense as
See the wooden house on the high branches of yew tree,
complete sentences.
in summers, the wife sat underneath and sipped iced tea;
Her scarf would swirl on the fragrant currents from the garden,
watched with glee by red colored roses of varying degree.
Come, bring your hope and joy, my friend, and repel the sorrow,
a new voice this house needs; Sing a song for the morrow.
