The Lord has done mighty acts. He answered me.
Thus, pens song writer and poet David, son of Jesse.
The day the dragon wind howled in my ears,
surrounded by juicy mulberries,
just west of the Floyd Levee, off blacktop B,
this is the information I came home with.
My dream was to capture
the branches going up up up above my head,
yeah, imagine this, on a horizontal canvas.

The dream took shape
when I rendered an abstract on square paper.
(18 x 18 inches)
It was during the workouts
in the water and
the sauna heat,
the waiting, the pausing,
the resting of the mind,
that He brought it to me.
The square graphite came next.
(12 x 12 inches)
There are too many
changes that He granted,
praise to His name, His majestic name.
So grateful this image came to be.
The desire of my heart,
placed within by His intention
bestowed by His affection.
Harder still would be
the converting
of graphite swiggles
into solid black shapes.
