silence
at every corner
vastness
in breathtaking panorama
awareness grows deep
such a day is but a kidnapper
to these lush thoughts
languor slow dances its way
into the blood stream
and the eyes are besotted by the sky line
the sheer volume of the luminous clouds
performing an air ballet
almost daily
to a near empty earth theater
a passion for wishing to paint
suddenly bursts forth
a day like today
could tempt even the lowliest artist
to craft his or her own O'keefe
this is how nature begins her seduction
