| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/16/2007 9:03:57 AM | Still, Life
Watching you, child making struggle of every breath for forty years
Flesh of my flesh dreamed into being no less from your own demons than my love
Wish why had an answer Wish balm were mine to give Know you are not alone
That love and light follow you and prayer. That some day, one day, you will be able to accept.

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/16/2007 9:16:07 AM | ~~~~~~~~~Empty Canvas~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wishing to create a whole new picture One where the ending is much less empty Colours so strong , feeling so deep Mixtures of feelings from my soul seep
Capture each flicker of light in the day Deepest dark colour to bring soul from the nite Of my own making for others to view But with my hands I can make it anew
Hurts and troubles melt into another place Souls that were lost....again hope comes in face Tradgic memories once dark and bloody Come to a new brightend path , eyes to see
Shall this empty canvas ever be a masterpeice Or shall it just rest in my torn mind forever One day....maybe it shall shine like the sun Uplift my heart ........recreate all the wrong

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/16/2007 12:42:27 PM | Wooby. You radiate love. Thank you.
Jules...the canvas is yours to paint. There will always be critics... who cares. Those who can do, those who can't criticize. Dip your brush and begin.  | |

Some time ago I took a deep breath Of the most incredible air you can imagine Crisp as new mountain snow with a hint of Strawberries lounging in dark chocolate And a brilliant indigo aftertaste
So wonderful was this new strain I exhaled all the stale limitations That had always choked me, cleared the passageway, realigned my spine and inhaled one long, slow, deep stream
Since then I cannot breathe a word | |

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/16/2007 1:33:03 PM | Today…Payne’s Grey
I brandish a brush When I’m not in a rush It may not look real But I paint what I feel To get the appeal And that’s the real deal
The colour is named after William Payne, who painted watercolours in the late 18th century. Eye Guy all mediums

There is something depressing About finishing as a halftone graphic illustration Finitely posterized grey and bleak as a London fog.
Perhaps, before going to press I’ll convert the grey to sepia.
I am still warm to the touch And, there’s implied comfort in words like amber and cinnamon.
Yes. If I am meant to hang unadorned on a basement wall until my corners curl and tear, sepia is better. | |

oh lord, no no no, not you, never you, I can't bear to even think that fate for you.... no, will never happen, nope, not to you.... you of luminous lush light, delicate stroke, a buttercup, forever in bloom | |

I’ve lost my marbles They were here just the other day I remember rolling them on the floor Goodwill Mac Hunting merrily chasing each one as if it were a bunny or a squirrel
I’m certain I picked them up and put them back into the little black pouch But where did I put the pouch
You see, it’s not really the marbles I’m concerned about There were other things tucked into that pouch I miss even more Like laughing, nothing seems funny, or crying. My sockets just leak now Not the usual torrent that clears the weather. Just a slow and steady drip drip drip It’s maddening
I must have put music in there too All the notes have gone flat Impulse, deadened Taste buds, AWOL Fortitude, gone All disappeared with that little black pouch I know it’s here somewhere | |

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 10:10:16 AM | Yoko you keep blowing me away with your paintings.. Where have you been hiding all that talent the past year??? Marbles was a masterpiece! | |
|
| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 10:25:20 AM | YOKO, this poem was the best! knowing exactly the feeling....I caressed each word! good one my friend! hugs
~~~~~~~Lost.....in what?~~~~~~~~
Feelings are something I crave nowdays Wonder what happend to all the feelings I made? Lost in a dark lonely tunnel I find......I travel so far....... hear not a sound! Music I loved, plays no more Flowers I grow...... just seem so humdrum I wonder if ever I come out of the dark finally release......another igniting spark Sail off to see another world I could live in......or be just me......... All lifes problems then solved? I doubt it..... but I can dream ...... cant I? hugs girl, jules  | |
|
| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 12:21:10 PM | Drea...Goodwill Mac Hunting dragged it in from the yard. LMAO. XOXO

Woodland Spirit
Out in the spectral forest of submissive heat, epicurean whispers through leaves, attention giving lumbers abound pierce the thickets and the trees.
Green awakens from a secret dream, how far do these deer trails lead… through this ageless wanton scene? How far is a lonely path, lest a heaven in which to convene?
Wild magnolia dance with the rest, likened to undulating breast. Swirling breeze whips canopy top, pleated skirt, billowing flop. Sweet in her flowers, long as daylight hours.
Windswept locks blow you free, turning heads, warming air pause the heart of me.
On moss ridden banks with ease, majestic hardwood stand erect through the pine mingled trees.
White, red, water oaks un-hewed, silver lichen flourish, wooed. Violets are we, do grow under trees delicate purple, rich in abilities. No longer fear blackberry briars, we rise above these scoring fires.
The underbrush spreads its blanket, pine straw and leaves fall from tree. What of the older grape vines, will they trumpet accusing lines?
Fairy roses revealing your flush whirling us ripe persimmon red. Fragrance sweet as honey must enticing nature’s flowering bed.
We consummate the innocence of timeless fragility. The passage of all epochs, rhymes tying you to me.
I came from beyond the ocean, across an open shore; spirit aloft vegetation to conceive another lore. | |

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 1:10:03 PM | Sky paint With trails left by butterflies Transcending the distance With the instinctual habit Of orange and black. Spirals of colour Feather flown In the thermal awakening Paint raptor trails In the soft hues Of living life. Buffalo clouds graze across the blue expanse Herded by the same breeze That floats the tree pollen Seeking soulmate in waving branches of green. Seed down chasing adventure and a new place to be Tumble through the either’s On their way to where. Sunset spectacular Illuminates profound splashes Of purple and red Across the deepening horizon. Stars peep out of indigo One by one As late night sawett fly by And scrape the moonbeams Sprinkle golden Unseen, but for the artists eye Sky painting the night. | |

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 1:36:11 PM | Skypoet...thanks for stopping in and leaving your lovely poem. Those who know me, know I am waiting....

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 1:53:41 PM | Wowwwwww...YOKO....I think John Lennon ...just posted for you! awesome! Dang.......but think the real YOKO...would be a little jealous...don't you? Wonderful poetry....Skypoet.....lovely in words....and YOKO knows it! Ravin....loved that one..! really did!
~~~~~~~~~~~Dangerous Colours~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What if I painted a sky of pure red.......... little streams of purples ....darkness ahead Lovely pangs of orange....so bold in its feel Angry...yellows that scream....and just squeel!
A heart of the deepest reds you could dream Feeling such pain.....leaving peices of green Envy....jealousy....no just not me! I would rather leave hints of soft blue that are free!
Maybe a picture of my very own heart One that is bleeding...and is red from the start Long slow....soft trickles of red....and some blue Lands in your hands....for it is meant just for you!
All of these colours do live in my soul my heart does relive them each time we do talk I wonder if all of my canvas of colour May enter your being.....as you once were my lover  | |

| Fingerpainting Posted: 7/17/2007 2:20:03 PM | this is starting to become my favorite thread to read... you ladies are really painting some pictures

Palate and Eye
The blue of a jay The blue of a heron The white of a bunny tummy The gold of a finch The orange of an oriole The red of a doe in summer The indigo of a bunting The scarlet of a tanager The purple of a thistle Day lily's orange The magenta of sweet pea The green of a luna The red of a cardinal The tan of a tabby The red of a fox

“Oz never did give nothin to the tinman, that he didn’t already have”
Said the mettle to the falling petal This is no time for dewy drops And blue birds just don’t fly that high
Someday I’ll wish upon a scar and wake up you are. | |

There are times I travel roads that are only mapped by my inner eye Tapping down the center line cane in one hand and a basket of uncommon sense in the other I migrate toward the unknown
And sometimes, it’s frightening to blindly wander the jagged boulevards of Faith and Love but a part of me knows that if I hold out my hand I’ll find you there | |
