*Angel 5* 36" H X 30" W Acrylic On Canvas
Destiny

The 
Angel
Of
Our
Self
Will
Come
To
Light,
Clear
As
Day,
Black
As
Night.
What
We
Are
Will
Hold
Us
Back,
Or
Allow
The
Soul’s
Sweet
Flight.
As
We
Grow
We
Come
To
Know
If
Our
Heart
Can
Fly,
Or
Will
We
Fail,
And
Never
Try.

*Nude In Landscape* 30" H X 24" W Oil On Canvas
Dreamer

Anna,
Red
Haired
Mountain
Girl,
Mind
In 
A
Spirit
Whirl,
Sits
Cross
Legged
In
The
Rising
Sun,
Seeking
To
Become
One
With
Burning
Earth
And
Empty
Sky,
And
Never
Ever
Asking
Why.

*Ready-To-Wear* 35" H X 29" W Oil On Linen
Raiment

Clothes
Are
Perhaps
The
Armor
Of
The
Lord, 
And
Lift
Us
Up
When
We
Are
Bored.
Or
Else
Can
Be
A
Clever
Disguise
To
Shield
Us
From
Inquiring
Eyes.
A
Jaunty
Hat,
A
Ribbon
Blue,
Will
Serve
For
Me
As
Well
As
You,
Then
Free
To
Be,
We’ll
Shed
Them
With
A
Lover
True.

*Black Friar Plums* 20" H X 16" W Acrylic On Canvas
Third Season

The
Soft
Fruits
Of
Summer
Give
Way
To
Mellow
Haze
Through 
Cooler
Days
Of
Harvest,
Red
And
Yellow
Apples
Ripe
In
Dapples
Of
Fading
Sun, 
As
Autumn
Is
Begun.

Fraud

A
Lie
Is
A
Lie,
Even
If
You 
Try
To
Pass
It
By,
And
Hide
What
You
Have
Done
To
Injure
Someone.
It
Will
Fester
And
Haunt,
While
You
Flaunt
Your
Virtue
And
Paint
Yourself
The
Saint
In
Flowery
Prose,
But
Everyone
Knows,
Hateful
Liar,
Eventually
Everyone
Knows.

*Iris* 16" H X 12" W Acrylic On Canvas
Senescent

A
Thief
Came
In
The
Night
And
Stole
Me
Away,
Leaving
A
Stranger
Growing
Gray,
Wrinkled
And
Small
Where
Once
I was
Tall.
In
Truth,
They
Stole
My
Youth,
Strength,
And
Weakened
My
Eyes,
But
In
Recompense,
Left
Me
Wise,
And
Of
Good
Sense.

*Stone* 30" H X 24" W Acrylic On Canvas
Pathway

Stones
Fitted
Like
The
Past,
Will
Outlast
Change
And
Never
Rearrange,
Until
Time,
As
It
Must,
Crumbles
All
To
Dust.

Coming 
South
From
Santa
Fe
The
Road
Falls
Down 
And
Down,
And
Rock
Outcrops
Change
From
Grey
Brown
Instead
To
Rosy
Red
Overgrown
Sandstone,
Almost
The
Color
Of
The
Hair
Of
This
Lady
Who
Lives
There.

*War* 36" H X 30" W Oil On Linen
Wasted

What
Use
To
Remember
That
Other
September?
Where
Is
The
Recompense
For
Loss
Of
Innocents?
Another
War
On
Some
Barren
Shore?
Ignorant
Armies
Sent
Out
To
Maim
And
Kill
For
Our
Politicians
Thrill?
Another
Fight
To
Appease
The
Religious
Right?
Who
Pays
For
The
Ruin
Of
Days,
Who
Stands
The
Cost
Of
Lives
Lost?
Can
No
One
See
It’s
You
And
Me?

*Dos Santos* 36" H X 30" W Oil On Linen
Poseurs

Two
Carved
Saints
In
Colored
Paints.
One
Of
Stone,
One
Of
Wood,
Standing
Proudly,
As
They
Should.
Each
Regarding
Each,
There
To
Lecture
And
To
Teach.
I heard
Some
Of
What
They
Said,
But
Was
Aware
They
Had
No
Head.
