fishbowl of aqua





fishbowl of aqua

“Colours are the wounds of light.” William Blake


the whole of life seems somehow new.
old paintings that hang on the wall
appear crisply fresh and brilliant.
worlds that hang in frames beyond the window panes
seem subdued, softer still.
aqua colors both worlds,
inner and outer,
with one brush stroke,
peace.

Lovely and inspiring... both the image and the words. This is a color I think I could live with.

Thank you for sharing - your photo, quotation and poem. I too am contemplating some new finishes and colors in areas of our home. I love your reflection that everything (perhaps even yourself) feels new in this newly created color space!
