every painted vision (for pam) the sunlight settles on a quiet street where cyclists ride on ancient cobblestone the buildings fade as light and shadow meet with all the colors blending into one the afternoon glows soft in springtime air its calm unfolding slowly with the breeze the city moves with unassuming care a gentle pulse reflecting gentle ease then in your eyes the light becomes a guide and simple moments show themselves sublime your canvas joins with all you feel inside a portrait born outside the bounds of time you trace the lines of every shape and form the people strolling, coffee and cafes you sense the mood grow open, bright and warm with simple elegance that marks these days you’ve kept this way of seeing through the years and still delight in each discovery reflect that passion now as vision clears and every brushstroke molds identity and as you grow grateful for all you see for how each moment clarifies your view gift to the world its own simplicity as every painted vision lives in you there’s grace to find in ordinary things as timeless moments rise unveiled by chance and see these moments form unending springs in every scene grown bright with radiance now in your eyes the ordinary gleams each light, each shadow, everything you view transforming moments into living dreams as every painted vision lives in you rjh ~ artwork by pam, "joy in groningen"
