Artwork Description

Autumnal moods and passing whims
â–¡
A trail in the west
That seems to be best
Something done today
I cycled the day away
â–¡
Was the sky bruised
The grey smudge oozed
No slabs of blue
Cerulean in cracks breaks through
â–¡
Tiramisu or chocolate Bavarian
Loam or dirt asks the contrarian
Mulch plastic, an old truck wheel
Creek trail autumn I like the feel
â–¡
On the surface a leaf skims
Autumnal moods and passing whims
â–¡

Artist Bio

Original verse by Edmund West and Liz.
â–¡
A sensuous scratch.
â–¡
Do you have a spirit, a soul, a voice.
Whisper in the wind, a quiet rejoice.
â–¡
Burnt siena, ochres, tonal grays
Olive eucalyptus the afternoon haze.
â–¡
Pee on a tree, a jaggedy dark patch
Blonde summer grass, a sensuous scratch.
â–¡

â–¡
The gate is open just a chink
â–¡
The gate is open just a chink
Should I go through, what do you think?
â–¡
I'm going out the door
In search of a why and wherefore
â–¡
Do you see the land of promise
Or has it been taken from us.
â–¡
Talk in real life
Either way there can be strife.
Talking in real life can be difficult. Lean on a gate,
It will be great.
â–¡
Splash in the sea,
Wait and see.
â–¡
The beach is deserted
Except for some kelp
We walk in the shallows
I give a joyous yelp
â–¡
A ray shoots under my foot
Gone in a blink
A split second shadow
No need to think
â–¡
All is shimmers.
The waves flat and languid
Breakers unfinished
Don't care if I'm stupid
