Painting Poem by Sebastian Soberania

Painting



the intention matters for it comes from the heart
we are, for what happens,
responsible for what fails or succeeds,
either we are guilty of innocent,
either we feel the hate or overjoyed by the love that flows
from our hearts,
either we become beasts or humans
a bug or butterfly, a grass or rock, sky or earth

what grows as a seed in our mind creeps and
roots in our heart
we become what we think
and we know what we feel

we choose to throw what stinks
we disregard what spoils us
we must always make the choices

and for all these we become what we are what we choose
like a painting that we see from the hands that chose the colors
that made the brush strokes that took the time to view and then ponder.
