Adam's Hearth, oil and gold leaf on canvas board
A Club Chair for Henri Matisse
Sit in the club chair
Beyond the window,
So soft
So safe
Surrounded by blue and light.
You may rest there,
Beyond the window,
To know
To grow
Beyond anger and sorrow,
Beyond moments that excite.
Touch the quiet forever
Embraced in blue and light.
Golden sparks
Tell a story
So clear
So bright
Hugged in blue and light.
Creation flows there
Beyond the window...
beyond impossible
beyond buts, beyond time
Dreams and desires combine
In the inner hearth
Rinsed in blue and light.
