Painting in shades of light

Painting in shades of light...
not merely in hue, in color,
trying to capture reality
the warmth of mid-summer.

Painting in shades of light...
a daunting proposition,
seeking to capture the image
the truth before our eyes.

Painting in shades of light...
to gather features, meaning,
to honor the work of others
who capture light in a bottle.
