Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting that speaks. -Plutarch

Oh, the waves…

Posted on November 27, 2021 by areilly88

12×12, acrylic on canvas

I never thought of 
The ocean as tapestry
A blanket of moving surf
Until you mentioned 
My blue-green fibers
Pattern and strong weave

But I’d always known waves
Were the key, a curve 
To ride upon. That somehow
I’d be a sailor. And you,
All of you, would be
My seafaring companions
