Streaks of gold on a sheet
of charcoal grey;
patches of green glistening
like wet paint
Bear-like figures emerging
from hibernation;
birds calling our landscape
into question
Children unafraid of giants
resembling trees;
reflections in an artist’s eye
on post-storminess
A joy, seeing Earth Mother
at work and play;
a privilege, feeling her brush
stroking us in
Masterpiece, left unfinished
to challenge critics
on imagination, watch them
arguing the signature
