A poem.. you get it?
Dark road / The pounding of the rain
Dark roads and rain.. not for everyone.
But one morning I woke up and felt / Betrayed
Just before Valentines.. for give.. this just wanted space.. / erupting elements that are grabbing my heart today..
And then the curtain closes / On our rights and our wrongs / And you pause and take my hand.
More yet …relief / I cannot tell all of you how much your arms of love mean to me. In all respects.. I think my love is greater because of you. I am back from work and going to bed now.. Be Well you certainly are a part of me.
It is when you set all the vibrating ideas / Aside, / That spins you like a topsy tervy / Whirling dervish
A collaboration of two Souls..
My eyes see more color and my / Thoughts are risky too
Tis fun a diddy here and there .. just because it is pretty and I wanted / to dare….YOU!! XOXOXOX
Well I am fascinated with a man who can say something like / That and then just pause, / Like the Grand Canyon Pause
A feeling I have for the rain and for toes and for love.
You been given me fruit fly for / Breakfast. / I see em floating Ray / I see em in my beer
I was meandering thru my dearest Co-Creator and friend TeriLee’s work / and found on the top ..thank god, one of my favs she wrote a while back…Which inspired me to write this little didy.. both of our pieces about True Love and loss via / the Real American Way!!! Quid Pro Quo and the Fake Leg / TeriLee Harvey was in love / She didn’t want much to do with him / Until an accident took her leg / He told her he loved her / She snubbed him / He began to beg / She figured she would settle / Because of her mishap / She had a prosthetic limb / She decided to marry Harvey / The odds of finding a “good man” / Were looking pretty dim / She tried to make him what she wanted / No more drinkin’ / No more smokin’ / No more late nights at Grizzly’s pub / He could never be good enough / But his love for her was undaunted / She turned his ranch house in to a show place / She told him to say “Hello” / “Howdy Ya’ll” was not allowed / His music was a waste / His friends were all too raw / She needed a more sophisticated crowd / But the morning she threw his dog out the door / Well…..that was that / Harvey could take no more / His wife, he begged for all her love / Went over a cliff / With one gentle shove / Her leg he still holds dearly / For the love they could have had / That has ended / But now he sees things clearly / There was so much more / That she could have loved him for / So he drilled a hole in her big toe / He turned her leg into a bong / Smoked a bowl and sang this song / “Goodbye my sweet, / It was a treat, / Too bad you had to go / But, you forgot… / Quid pro quo”
She used to write me and tell me I was completely / Wicked
Life is so surprising sometimes.
She, / Like a tree, Just kept on growing, / Until growing became knowing
/ Kellie Cranmer is one of the most incredible artists I have met up with here on RB. I have always marveled at her ability to see the lighter side of this existence as well as the rich deep layers of life we are challenged to embrace and perhaps create with. Her own personal experiences as of late has inspired my own view of who I am as artist as well as my own appreciation for each moment of life here on Planet Marvel! I went to her PF and saw this piece. I have seen it many times but never commented nor wrote on it. I love this creation. It is so feminine and powerful. I wrote a poem inspired by this work and she has given me permission to add the art to the poem. Thanks you Kellie! / . / MOTHER NATURE BY KELLIE CRANMER /
