Gorgeous painting by Kim Nelson.
…
Your will
………………..cries out in
purple
……..perfect
majesty.
But see, I’ve got this heart
………………………….and it’s fractured and frayed
and broken and parts of it
………….haven’t spoken in years.
Still,
you hold it soft at center
……………………………adore its every off
beat song and remind me
again
…………..that I’ve been Yours,
…………………………..all along.

Wow that is impressive. The poem is perfect, and I love Kim’s paintings and poetry!
Oh, this is fantastic. I love every word. But this is my favorite section: “parts of it haven’t spoken in years. Still, you hold it soft at center adore its every off”
Oh, beautiful! Your poem and the image fit together so very well – I really love it.
You KNOW I love this…every word, De, so affecting. ♥
This is so self-affirming, believing that despite all human foibles, one is worthy of love.
This is perhaps my favorite of all the poetic responses. Thank you for turning my painting into an exceptionally meaningful statement.
Ohhh. Thank you so much, Kim. This piece is STUNNING, and really spoke to me.

Such a stunning piece of art, but no more beautiful than the accompanying poetry. De, your words sing.
De, perfect accompaniment here.
