THE SPIRIT OF THE CANVAS

Imagine the sea and sky

are your canvas,

and the clouds and currents

your pigment,

and your brush, your breath

and expanded spirit.

Your desire to serve,

to help and to heal

steps with you

every time you approach 

the easel. When the piece

is done you will know

who you’ve touched

because they will 

thank you as if

you were a captain

or pilot for the journey,

for bringing them,

with such care

and kindness,

safely and buoyantly

back home.
