The painter

The painter had no colours, any more.

He was in his house and confused.

When you try to paint, a painting

can be painted, a million Times… ..

A sky looked into his window of glass

and ice of youth jokes were covered by glass,

golden and silver clear dreams.

I’ve always watched the patience

of the painter

but a painter does not see, it that way.

An artist uses the imagination of a lost ship

and I am the one to know, that a captain holds the mermaid.
