NicosiaText: March creek: bleak scene ‘til growth peeks through wintry debris as old leaves cascade past fresh beginnings. As it passes, the butterfly connects forsythia yellow to daffodil gold. Dark colors erupt within, spilling out old desires that color the now. Though I paint the world rare with palette raw, in spite of this, I miss you. Myth mixes with memory insights into things done and felt and reacted to, in light of what’s happened in others’ tales.
