A Little While
You don't understand me
I don't expect you to
This deep spiritual need I have
Directs me differently than you
I am a soul, born unique
Unusual it's true
And I have needs
That I must meet
To do the things I do
Peace at times
I must have
In order to create
Creation is the air I breathe
With no peace I suffocate
Please don't take offense with me
If at times it seems I hide
And shut the world out
Including you
As there's no offense implied
So let me have this time I plea
To do what I do differently
I will be back to laugh and smile
I just need a little while

ReplyDeleteI love this! How so beautiful with the colors, framing and subject. You sure do know how to pick the frames for your artful images. I really like the poem.
ReplyDelete3B this near-a-bouts looks 3D. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you Anna! I wasn't even sure I wanted to use a frame, I almost took it off. Glad you liked it!
ReplyDeletePreston, now that I look at it again it does seem almost 3D. I used a Soft Focus filter on her so maybe that did the trick--??.
Your artwork is incredible. Thank you so much for using my poetry with your beautiful work.
