Please enjoy this poem and painting by my friend Joie Villeneuve.
Forever Nourished
Sweet
Hungry
Egret
In the yard.
Pond
Full of fish
Vacant.
Farewell dear
Sweet orange
And yellow finned ones.
Nourish the winged one
On its journey.
Painter and poet Joie Villenueve creates from her connection with the Beloved. “They are love songs,” she says of her paintings.
very nice…
Simple, exquisite imagery conveying blessings to creation.
I love it.
Yes, that was my sense too, Sheila. As well, for me, it demonstrates the perfection of all creation. No need for sentimental emotionalism about the fish. Instead a deep understanding of how we nourish each other on our great journey through eternity.
Love that perspective Lesley…..& enjoyed this painting & words…thanks…
