The Deepest Connection
(The Artist in Her Studio)

Tap root
Dive deep
Dig down
Seek

Lights and darks
Colors on a wheel
Texture – smooth to rough
Line and such
Blights to dull
Shapes to delight

Dive deep
Hold on
Seek some more
Explore
Take a sounding
Mark four

Dig down
Risk it all
Satisfy the hunger
Clocks broke
Day’s end
Without conclusion
Tomorrows a new day
Try again

Seek
The journey is long
Made up of days
A lifetime to be sure
Illusion of time stops
It seems you just get started
Rolling downhill
Sun sets in the west
Day’s done
The sun rises
Begin again
