Painting By Felix Vallotton
*
the Minds
That Compel Us
To Lift Our Heads
*
sweep Dust
from darkened corridors
convey Light
turn Alleyways
into 4 lane Boulevards
tributary streams
into powerful Rivers
*
Minds that
with a Gleam
and a Nod
open Doors
Create Vistas
Broad and Beautiful
*
leave us convinced
Of A Journey
*
a taste of Opportunity
lying in Wait
*
should we choose
*
those People
of those Minds
teach us
For A Moment
*
to Give
a little further
Fear a little less
stretch a fraction harder
love ourselves
just
that bit more
keenly
