Wish You Happiness

within his mind

mostly one thought

to wish you 

and you

and you

happiness

in the deepest sense

on a soul level

within the air you breath

the thoughts that rise

the way you walk

and dance 

and talk

and all he did

was to imbue:

wish you happiness 

in you 

and you

and you

Youth

he is a young genie

spunky 

more sure of himself than is wise

 his determination for adoration

pushed him

revealing his weaknesses

and 

bruising his pride

this began as a sketch 

in a wee book (5.5"x7")

page coated in Casein white paint

then i smeared oil pastels here and there

and rubbed

added watercolors

straight from the tube

i thought i was done here:

nope, final it the top image

~

not until i took this photo did i read the words

of this page

perhaps it would be good to read this beautiful book

before i cover it with art!
