Glimmer
the sky swam with stars
glowing and fading
twisting
i had a million questions
and asked
none.
twenty years from now,
will i remember this walk
and those stars
when you are fading
like the last wisps of blue on the horizon?
or is it destined to become dust
in the corners of my mind
lofting on the breezes of my thoughts
rushing by
dare i hope
it catches the sun
and glimmers?
like the light
of stars

The world is always needing more peace love and creativity this is my goal. I live in a North Shore community. My art medium is acrylic paints. Most of my inspiration is from the ocean, the sand, the rocks, the atmosphere, the horizon.
