The Sounding Light ~ Union Arts Center, Sparkill, New York


The Sounding Light ~ Union Arts Center, Sparkill, New York

Upon entry a sigh into a space
that speaks an enfolding embrace
Greeted by tidings of palette and word
that call to be seen, to be heard

This Sounding Light conceived
form, line, in splendor, in flow perceived
Hues, tones, gentle, passionate, stark
light held, light free, shadows of grace echo the dark
The poet, the artist, BE she in presence known
'tis the Sounding Light within heart, upon walls be shown.

How Does...



How does a poet, an artist, process the news that speaks to corruption, deception, maligning controls and abusive encounters? It hears the plea of TRUTH beyond the lies, it sees the HUMANITY beyond the exploitation, it lives the knowing, the FAITH,  the VISION,  beyond the oppression. It feels the QUAKE and STORM that ever calls to the LIGHT, it lives THE WORD anew.


...with word in heart.....with palette in hand...



Quake and Storm

the line be it beauty perceived
the light be it TRUTH revealed
the shadow be it time cast
the color be it passion known
the stirring, the quest, the resolve
quake and storm
'tis the artist's way.
