#poem, Flowers? Flowers for Me (Chapter 2)

(«Flores pa tí»/Francisco Bravo Cabrera/All Rights Reserved)

Flowers for me?
Lovely lady, flowers?

They come from lands
that seem dark, forgotten, ominous,
where not a single rose blooms,
where birds have lost their melodies,
where the sea rips through the sand
and these you place in my hands,
in my lapel?
Them I’ll treasure
one brief moment,
for I firmly do believe
you have a hatred of flowers,
these flowers you give to me.

  5. The painting is truly impressive. It captivates viewers with its rich colours and intricate details, drawing them in and evoking a sense of reflection. The way it conveys emotion and depth leaves a lasting impression, making it a standout piece of art. The artist puts much thought into creating something that not only catches the eye but also stirs the mind.🎉👌

    1. Thank you 🙏🏻. My paintings reflect the reality that is lived minute by minute, and I use colour to reach out and touch the senses of the viewer to create within the observer an emotion and a sense of time. I truly appreciate your words. Thank you 🙏🏻 very much.
