"She Paints"

[jupiterjane]

Brightly lit

works of Art

adorn the walls.

She works feverishly

on her newest

creation,

and I sit in

wonderment

of it all.

She doesn't realize

how her passion

touches the lives

of so many.

She sits next to me

on the couch,

hands trembling,

legs wobbly,

and says,

"what do you think",

"does it speak to you"?

I don't answer,

she really doesn't

expect me to.

Side by side we sit

she leans her head

on my shoulder

and closes her eyes.

I can feel her tremor

run up her arm

and into her head

and shoulders.

It rumbles

in my heart.

I hold her tightly

and whisper,

"I wish I were

a piece of canvas

upon your easel,

being touched

by your brushes

and brightly

colored hues".

She didn't hear his words.

She had drifted off to sleep.

So he held her tighter,

blessed by her presence.
