As I was reading, the first thing I thought of, was that colors and painting mean love in this poem. Colorful abundance of love that stays forever.

| This is breathtaking, Cryssa. I can feel all the emotion you have for your mother, your missing her, and your knowing she watches over you as you see her and her beautiful paintings in the heavens. Such a lovely tribute for your dear mother's birthday. Just beautiful! Hugs, Elizabeth |

Dear Cryssa, I am pleased to see your work again. It is a very nice poem and I like these two lines especially:
"extracting memories from my heart
and moisture from my eyes"
Well done. Love Emile

Cryssa,
your understanding of your mother's expression,
of her art, is splendid, and you rejoice, rightly,
in her talent and achievements, her colour.

| (I had to look up the word "tyro")--how's that for a confession? What I appreciate most about this poem, is that it does capture the nastalgia of family room light, the smell of oil paint and terpentine, and the colors-colors-COLORS. I remember she wanted to paint our new house in strong colors--don't be afraid of strong colors. (My walls are all white). See, this is what I need in my life: More color-- more MAMA! (I think you should capitalize that word). I also like how you can see her paintings in the sky. I like to view the sky through a painter's eye too-- (not that I'm much of a painter, but you know what I mean). I enjoyed the memories and the view. Love ya too. --Charlie |

Beautiful connection through her paintings translated to your heart. Her being lives on in her paintings...her herilooms passed on to you to hang proudly where you can see the results of her passion. We as painters of portraits, landscapes, seascapes or differing scenes leave our imprint and those outlive us to almost forever in the hearts of those who love(d) us.
