I’m working on a few portraits. And they are going well. But sometimes I need a time out, and when I paint these abstracts I kind of get lost in them. They are where my heart is. And good ole Emily, she’s keeping me going.

Forever – is composed of Nows

BY EMILY DICKINSON

Forever – is composed of Nows –

‘Tis not a different time –

Except for Infiniteness –

And Latitude of Home –

From this – experienced Here –

Remove the Dates – to These –

Let Months dissolve in further Months –

And Years – exhale in Years –

Without Debate – or Pause –

Or Celebrated Days –

No different Our Years would be

From Anno Dominies –
