Art and Poem by AOM

The art is a Photoshop edit of a painting I painted

The poem I wrote back in 1986

I hope you enjoy them

 I feel at first that the poem is a bit dark

But the resolution is very positive

A little ditty reminding us to give of ourselves

What we give to others, do for others, the Love we share with others

These are the things that remain  of us after we are gone

These are the parts of us that will ripple throughout eternity

"Hold fast to dreams

For if dreams die

Life is a broken-winged bird

That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams

For when dreams go

Life is a barren field

Frozen with snow."

~Langston Hughes

“A bird is safe in its nest - 

but that is not what its wings are made for.” 

~Amit Ray

"Without love 

we all like birds with broken wings."

~Mitch Albom

"Broken wings 

fit more easily in standard-size boxes."

~Mikhail Turovsky

~*~

caged birds 

die

having never known the sky,

the infinity of heaven's space,

nor felt the sun upon their face;

having never lived a dream,

they fade gently down the stream.

caged birds

die.

will you 

and i?
