Roads to Here

Soul Art

Painting byLord Fredrick Leighton


How he understands my soul

he could write of me a song

he could sing of me, a ballad

pen verse to linger on...


In the quiet of his kiss

with a fiercely knowing gaze

he could write of me a book

and could read of me for days.


How he captivates my mind

I could paint of him some art

I could hang it on a wall,

where I'd sleep beneath his heart.


A tremendous flowing tide

rush forth the rivers flow

in a sweet unspoken rhyme

he is the artist of my soul.
