The Sketching Clouds of dusty charcoal rise above the visage A pickup traveling a dirt road Dreaming in the night Dreaming in the day Like twilight nothing under the sun nothing over the hill Endless horizons The beauty, the peace brightens life Enlightenment as a dream comes, it's your dream Clouds drifting overhead Shaded, the sun is yours in the sketching Get your colors out A pickup now blue washed in the rain The setting is graphic Dreaming in the night Dreaming in the day Pickups, tractors in green fields horses in the meadows Cattle chewing their cuds Paths lead to water a bubbling spring Clean and cool brook Your dream A sketching of the mind Shaded colors peak Bulbous detail appearing as dust Your dream now charcoal A peace in the sketching

"Soul Sketch"

A soul sketch of a silent desire
Can be as intimate as love
Or as cold as death
This is a night before
When the heart is empty of delight
Happiness I wanted to say�
In front of the fire
Whispering�cracking sticks
Stripping bark into straws
But it isn�t about happiness
Or a dream to build kisses from
It�s about the imagination
A soul sketch of a silent love
It�s a sketch of a poets mind
A poet� love and passion
And the free flow of her pen in words
About her emotions� her love� and desire
Sketched in the dark corners of her soul
It�s not about happiness
But the intimate sketch
Of her spirit deep
Whispering� cracks� raw
But with a beauty
Deep within

A peace in the sketching... seems we all latch onto that final hook, Dale, and yet the rest of your canvas comes alive in the telling, too. We always see an Artist at work in your writes. TY Kate xx
