Thailand
Through Harold’s Lens:

Goodnight
Little Shop of Umbrellas.

You brought me joy
You showed me a way
You let me touch and feel.

We dabbled with delicate hands
Flew through soft clouds of white
Rolled in rainbows of colors
Sat on the tip of your brush.

Your dreams
Became my dreams
My inspiration
My love of life.

My parasol of pleasure.

“Music Of The Brush”

Strings across strings
Ave Maria
Haunts your heart.

Reeds on lips
Harlem Nocturne
Nurtures your desires.

Sticks on skins
Drum Sex
Transports you to deep dark.

Sable hair strokes colors
Mona Lisa
Invites you to explore beauty.

In the little studio
Hands folded
Quiet
In awe.

They
Patiently watched
Patiently waited.

Magical nanny
Julie Andrews
Cockney jack-of-all-trades
Dick Van Dyke
Fun, giggling
Children.

Even Walt was there.

Artist’s dreams
Coming alive.

Fantasies
Jovial jokes
Merry-go-rounds.

Lullabies
Tea parties in mid-air.

Children
Dancing ‘round the room.

Nursery rhymes
Poems
Songs.

Cannon booms at 8:00.

Gusts of wind.

Soft clouds
Magic umbrella
Mary Poppins floats.

Music
For Her soul.

Inspiration
For her heart.

Rhythm
For her body.

Gifted artist
Fans and umbrellas.
Spins her craft
Of color.

Spirits of pigments
Blowing
In the wind.

Flying leaves
Fluttering
From trees of red.

Soft sand
Whispering
Across beaches of gold.

Clouds of cotton
Floating
Through an umbrella of blue.

Art within art!

Thailand
Through Harold’s Lens:

Freshness of Spring
Warmth of Summer’s sun
Emerging from memories
Onto parasol’s roof of red.

Artist’s brush
Tipped in classic colors.

Little girl
Dancing through fields
Blooming flowers
Buttercups
Butterflies fluttering.

Embracing her love of life.
