INTERRUPTED THOUGHT

And artist paints

A beautiful landscape

The colors take me

Southwest

Maybe it is Wyoming,

Utah or New Mexico

A fiery presentation

Above the horizon

A delinquent sky

Almost recalcitrant

Grayish clouds

Interlope with

Magnificent caramel

And bronze with just

A touch of gold

The artist interjects

A rectangular box

Outlined in red

Filled with black

And within the black

Is a blaze of bright yellow

It doesn’t seem to belong

But is boldly present

My peace and

Understanding have

Been interrupted

My thoughts are

To begin again

I will try to get

Into the artist’s mind

Abstract dances well

Within the framework

Of beauty
