"I wanted to explore illumination, impermanence and the alchemy of connective action through gold and delicate, ephemeral creatures that emerge in the spring season. This poem is based on the titles of the 6 paintings in this collection." 

Two Lips

Two lungs can sigh a spell for air
emerging, merging, precious, rare

Two feet can sing a spell for earth
for dying death and living birth

Two eyes can raise a spell for rain
while moss and moonbeams wax and wane

Two hands can chant a spell for fire
where give and take and tale conspire

Two lips can summon warmth and light
in clouded day or spring-chilled night

Two lips can summon kindness, true
for you are me and I am you
