Description

Frame of Mind

How do you frame the image in our mind?
When life is so over-saturated,
And true well-being really hard to find,
This dilemma forever plays unkind.

What technique for this World works best of all?
Nothing suits while no-one fits such a scene,
Now depth alludes where all hope hits the wall,
That entails despair and total appall.

Today's experimental foreground blurs,
Then the heart melts when researching the Soul,
Seeking the bigger picture that prefers,
Subjects for the senses where love refers.

Invisible anticipation veers,
From classic and traditional living,
When we strike the same hour, after years,
To reallign thence overcoming tears.

Shape your future through composed background's past,
A story told in focus sharpens true,
Detail tasks to heal sadness by contrast,
Adjust, and never again left aghast!

The perfect frame compliments active mind,
Breathe easy from faith's most opportune place,
To a world you paint of beauty remind,
Into which two hearts portrayed thence entwined.

It's always nice to come back to your gallery once in a while and see such inspirational and uplifting work!

This work in particular, very soothing and speaks very well with the intimate of the viewer/reader.

I'm so sorry to hear that your health has not been so good. 'Hope' is my favourite word - it is a truly beautiful and inspirational one to so many. And both your photography and words, as always, are exquisite.
