Tender Wilderness (2018)

 
 
 
“There is

The rising up,

From light’s embrace,

You can see in a summer field,

or

In a child ‘s dancing.

”

“Let’s see,
We could start anywhere,
With any word,
In this fertile luminous world in which I live..

What is the first letter of your alphabet?
A,
O ——
That will be just fine.

Art is the converstaion between lovers.
Art offers an opening for the heart.
True art makes the divine silence in the soul
Break into applause.
