Saint Michael's Mount
Saint Michael's Mount
red and green
are my favourite colours
In the sun
they appear brighter
but my paintings are impressionistic
blurred contours
and if you look at the painting from a distance,
it becomes visible what it includes
I paint impressionistic,
not an easy style artistic
now i write poems about what i paint,
often poems oft take up my precious time
last holidays I was on an island on the beach of Normandy,
you can easily reach it from the other side
the other side then you are in England
The island of Mont Saint Michel is the name
it has a lot of fame,
Mont Saint Michel is still on the Normandy beach at Avranches,
on reaching the coast of England,
I start to ask
did I really cross over to England?
for me
high in dry
tax free
Mont Saint Michel
yes, for me
I asked someone walking there,
how is its name?
Mount Saint Michael,
was I really there
or had I just dreamed?
This castle monastery has an impressionistic look,
this coast of England often suffers from fog.

You have made saint Michael's mount look good with the painting you painted little by little. Well penned poem. are my favourite colours In the sun they appear brighter but my paintings are impressionistic.... indeed it makes an impression of holding things beautiful
blurred contours and if you look at the painting from a distance, it becomes visible what it includes....to see things you do not need clarity but a heart to see and a desire to feel and an eyes that accomodate imagination.
