Artist Dreams

If I could draw the love I feel for you…
Could somehow grasp the proper shade and hue-
The finished piece must hang on Heaven’s wall
For only there could eyes take in it all.

For Heaven is the place from which I see
The beauty of the visions given me-
To look with love is how to see what’s real,
And seeing, dream of painting what I feel.

For those who taste of Heaven want to share
The truth and joy we know is waiting there-
But each must lose the shades, which blind their eyes
And keep them from a glorious surprise.

To dip into the colors one by one
And learn to trust the canvas when they run-
For this is not a process of control,
But letting inspiration play it’s role.

Let go, somehow, and God will guide my hand
So I can do what I don’t understand,
Believing you and beauty are the same
This artist dreams the painting of your name.

John H. Bidwell

Oh I know the power of a name, especially the beloved and the image
of the "...artist dreams the painting of your name" is truly beautiful. Letting go is one of the hardest lessons to learn. Very fine, John...Lin
