noble white petals
yield the stillness of a dream
takes your breath away

a liquid blue soul
serene in beauty and breath
she waxes and wanes

While painting this piece, I felt a connection to Lori. It was like I was painting her soul. I stayed in a beautiful meditative state all the way through to writing the poem that is in honor of Lori's beauty. This one is for you Lori -- not sure if it's how you view yourself or your soul. It's just what came to me while painting and reflecting on who you are as I know you through your art and words.
