There goes My Amazing Daughter
pounding down the road, twice, without stopping
having left behind a mess, of sorts, in the kitchen
So here I sit watching the waves
breaking pounding in Me
after drawing up a Real Estate Ad
to sell My Mother’s Dream
Quick Sale –
So That I May Have My Dream
here on The Hawk
with The Crows
The Cats
Hunter
& My Daughter

the Love between Us
is a Pure and Gentle thing
i Fear you Misunderstand its Nature
its Importance
what it needs to Grow and to Thrive.
i Fear I can’t make You See these things
in Time.
the Love between Us
is a Hardy Succulent
but as it turns out,
even Succulents need Water once a week
and the Leaves, though Juicy
are Fragile.

I paint from the Light
and write from the dark
Happy Mother’s day -
I am writing a poem
Now that I have this out of the way
I can get to my painting

Murdoch and I participated in our first Juried Art Show at our local art gallery, MAC (Mission Arts Council). I had three paintings accepted and Murdoch had two. Murdoch was given an Honourable Mention as one of the best Student Artists for his painting “Forested Ocean”. Although I didn’t win any awards, I am honoured and excited about having my paintings in a show like this. Our art will be hanging in the gallery from May 2 – 19. This particular event is of great importance for me as it is all part of building confidence and believing in myself as an Artist.
Thanks to everyone who has viewed and commented on my paintings as it has encouraged me to get to this place where I feel really confident as an Artist. As you can see in the pictures, I think it has been good for Murdoch too.
I have since put in an application for an exhibit called “A Bond of Nature and Art” – “An exhibit by Mother and Son”. I will keep you posted on this one…
You act like
It’s not your fault
Hoggin’ the mic
And the single malt
I know what you want
You’ve made that clear
They looked so gaunt
Eyes filled with fear
I wasn’t born like this
Now I’ve so much owin’
I took a risk
Like Leonard Cohen
The rising sun 1
The depraved fun
Is comin’ home to roost
You think you’re done
And, of course, you’ve won
Enemies now securely noosed
Pistol shots ring out
In a barroom night 2
Demons sing, demons shout
Some black, others white
The morning fog
Is finally lifting
A warning, a dog
Transport, shifting
Disempowerment
Disenfranchised
Minority government
Ill-fitting, yeah – poorly sized
