Sylvan artist


As an artist, there’s so much
 I could learn from the trees: 
How many shades of gray there are,
 And how to use them to convey life and death; 
How to blend colors, 
And let them spill across a page
 In a song of survival; 
How to take opposites like red and green 
And pick shades of each that stand side by side 
And work together, totally complementary; 
How to use texture to express 
 The depths of our shared pain, 
As well as the capacity 
 And determination to overcome
