The primary aim of writing or painting is the solace that it provides to it's creator. Secondarily the power or the strength of art whatever we say. that it freezes human life to be transformed into eternal thing. By what we can live for ages as those great man of letters are living still whom we praise not only as human but as their works left to the world that is how we praise them, quote them. So art has the power to prolong our life and to carry us to the generation. As John Keats describes The Gracian Urn. so have the power with words and paintings where the prodigious labour of artist can be seen.

As I view the poem you wrote from the shape I see it's vying upward to the heaven as its words speaks it's spiritual strengthness.

Paul,

This poem says it all. Great art cannot be compromised, it breathes forever.

Warm regards,

Kathy
