A Poem & A Painting: New Year’s Light
Dec 28 2015 · 1 comment · A Poem & A Painting ·0
It’s hard to believe there are only a few days remaining in 2015. It has been an eventful year to say the least! This week’s painting is an “oldie but a goodie” featuring one of my favorite subjects: chandeliers. Wishing you light, love, health and happiness as we head into the New Year…
To the New Year
With what stillness at last
you appear in the valley
your first sunlight reaching down
to touch the tips of a few
high leaves that do not stir
as though they had not noticed
and did not know you at all
then the voice of a dove calls
from far away in itself
to the hush of the morning
so this is the sound of you
here and now whether or not
anyone hears it this is
where we have come with our age
our knowledge such as it is
and our hopes such as they are
invisible before us
untouched and still possible
~W.S. Merwin
Cheers to 2016 and exciting ventures ahead!
