Time
Since the moment I held a pencil I've been creating with drawings and words. I believe paintings enlighten and poems entice our audiences.

TIME
Tiny soldiers of honesty
Sit upon the windows of our souls
Shutter flashes of our past
Infuse our current thoughts
Today another moment
A window glass of notions
Long-ago travels into current time
A kaleidoscope of rotations
Views our unforeseen future
A glimpse of unknown candor
Spectacles of mindless chatter
Ensconce our fruitless hours
That convene upon our numbered days.
