Three years ago, our visual tale has started,
in Hampstead’s groves of green,
on paths that are enchanted.
Beneath trees, and above stones, his bare feet were walkin.
Forgotten all his troubles, and calmly started drawin.
Below the canopy of trees so tall and grand,
all sorrows and all fears
are healed by the land.
In peace and joy, the mind can now roam free,
in wonder, and in woken dreams of glee.
A sketch he drew, on papers he forgot.
A curve of gentle ease,
a slender tree forth brought.
Within this soothing cradle, his mind placed a star
that brightens the scenario casting shadows far.
And shadow surely shapes the forms that you can see.
Through painting he now summoned
the shapes of rock and tree.
A light above is floating, the sun that we all know,
Alike some other stars, its rays a golden glow.
With photographic alchemy, minute images he’s crafted,
that bring the viewer back
to where this whole has started.
In a northern valley is where this beauty is met,
home is there, where his mind is always set.
Portrayed in these scenarios, a physical projection
that seeks to show my soul,
and all of my affection.
Between reality and dream, is where these pictures stand.
And by his craft, they fade the vale of art and self and land.
