imagining the palette of God – v2

Looking at the sunset, before,

the painting, the image,

above the ancient mountain

below the horizon line

trying to describe with words

that are feeble, inadequate

(now that’s an understatement)

Imagining the palette of God

not limited by what I know as color

painting in fragrance, in emotion,

in temperatures, in seasons,

in cold and in heat, in motion,

in liquids, nothing so static, limited,

as what I know as shades and color

Imagining the palette of God, God’s colors,

in words I can relate to, that I can convey

in ways that I can share with others

to share my joy in the image, this gift of God

a daunting task, at best, at most,

something to be experienced

to be lived out loud

the fields were alive with frost this morning

on NH Route 107 in Epsom, NH, Southbound,

with many vistas of white over the reeds and grain stalks, as

at 43.213132,-71.285279
