PAINTING ON THE OTHER SIDE
A brush with death
Shapes a new picture
Implied lines
On the other side
A masterstroke
Completes my sunrise
Or sunset
On the other side
An oily tear
Escapes my eye
Infinite space and time
On the other side
I sign off
With a flourish
My first creation
On the other side
Michael Ashby, Sidmouth.
