A sense of wonder intact
The sun rose over the horizon
As I watched a new day dawn
Overlooking the azure surface of the ocean ahead of me
The sound of breaking waves
Alone with a canvas before me.

Looking out upon the ocean
I could only breathe in the salty air
A mosaic of fading stars
As the mighty sun rose higher
Closing in on a half crescent moon
A touch, an engaging entanglement.

We are painters, you see,
A vast mosaic before us
We stand on ground
Beyond us is an infinity of yonder possibilities
Our minds are the painter
Our life is the mosaic.

A sense of wonder intact
The sun greets the Earth for another day
Pain dissolves into the canvas
Mixing and shaping with the full range of the mosaic
Looking out upon the ocean
Memories of yesteryear mix with the possibilities
of Tomorrow.
Be the Painter, will you be my Mosaic?
