A WOMAN WITH A BASKET
A woman with a basket
A women with no face A women bending forward A woman with no faith A women with a basket Dead flowers in her hand Look there, right there behind you! She doesn’t understand Fresh flowers grow behind her Why can’t she look behind She cries over her flowers Oh, please, please turn around A women with a basket She slowly walks away She never saw the flowers Her basket was in the way A women with a basket Standing on a quilt A women with a basket A basket full of guilt.

A college art class assignment was to draw the still-life set arranged in the center of the room. While everyone was focused on the task, I felt an unexpected pull to create something different. It was as if my soul, my spirit, was urging me to paint what I truly needed to express. So, I followed that impulse, letting my brush flow. When I finished, I found myself gazing at a drawing filled with scattered objects, and as I began to describe what I saw, a deeper understanding kept emerging. The ending hit me powerfully. It seemed to arrive out of nowhere, leaving me in awe of the power of our subconscious mind. |
