#23 Paper Mate

Wow look at that cartwheel!... it was beautiful. Pretty self explanatory here, two ingredients paper and pins. Did have to clip the back of the pins down so they wouldn't stick out in the front, it felt like clipping a birds wings except this time it was giving movement not restricting it. Thank you Helen?, I think her name was Helen... Anyways great lady at the nursing home today who critiqued my sketches, thank you for that advice on the nose.

Loving Eyes

The love i see in your eyes,

the way they go soft and hold me

as if we were next to each other,

the love i hope reflects off of me

and back to you so that

you can have an idea of what I see

when I look into your intensely beautiful eyes,

 but after i want what you see reflected back quick

because it's a comfort and 

a happiness rolled into one and I want to hold onto it

because I can't hold onto you.

Time and space says it can't be so.

Back and forth it can bounce between us,

a passing basketball slapping the pavement

at the perfect angle so that we 

can see the message equally and

together. We can share that at least

and laugh in the face of space.

And any bad pass or flubbed angle,

we can fix and set right.

People always say they wish

you could see what i see, 

or see how you are in my eyes and i guess i do,

but more I want you to feel what i feel

when i look into your eyes,

my heart going soft like your look,

even when I can't say what i feel right. 

Even when we have to be apart.

Your eyes say it all,

if you looked into a mirror you'd see

what's written so clearly there,

Look out!

here comes the pass, into your open arms.

Look out, look at me the way you do,

so i can reflect it back to you

and we can share it.
