Man Of Clay

Everytime...I work with Clay
a warm feeling of oneness with the earth
gently washes over my soul.
Because...I know that this wounderful skill
that I have is a gracious gift from God.
And...there is no more wounderful feeling
on this earth...
Than to be able...to create...what you dream.

This is another one of my lithographs that I did in undergraduate school in Eau Claire, Wisconsin around 1976.

Spin And Create

She gave me her heart
and I placed it gently
on my potters wheel,
spinning and shaping it
as I desired.
I glazed her innocent eyes
with a lover's passion,
as I sealed our love
with a smoldering kiss.
She was a shiny new possession
unique in her design,
but then there was another...
waiting for me, to spin and shape;
so I set her aside...
like all the others...before
who learned to late,
that a potters...only true love
is to spin and create.

I just think these insects are rather intense individuals...to say the least.

Shadows We All Know

There they go again...c r a w l i n g ...up,
d
o
w
n...and across my bedroom wall.
Scary...S t r e c h i n g ...forms
that seem to enjoy playing games with my mind,
as they dance to the flickering flame of candle light.
Yes...my teddy bear and I watch them from the safety
of my grandma's warm patchwork quilt.
Yet...I can hardly wait for my shadowy friends on the wall
to return...tomorrow night.
