Andrew Wyeth’s Christina’s World
CHRISTINA’S WORLD
Simply put,
her corner in life
was smaller
than most owned.
Yet, in the smallness, she had
more than she hoped for.

ETERNAL HOPE
At last, I
cross the final bridge
of the road
less traveled;
the warmth of a life well lived
my soul companion.

BLUE SKIES
Summer clouds
my vision of the
darkest days
of winter.
I can see blue skies clearly
surrounding my days.

RESPITE
Summer heat
is unbearable.
Wilting, I
find relief
hiding in the shadows of
the mid-summer moon.

DAYDREAMIN’
A day at the lake
kissed by the sun.
My heart aches
for a day at the lake.
I need a break,
to relax and have fun ~
a day at the lake
that’s kissed by the sun.
