Delilah

shutters

 

a painting is best done in watercolor

her lovely words so softly splayed

she is the best art that\'s ever been made

and i\'ve yet to find another

 

 and when she feels a drop of pain

she closes the shutters

her eyelids will flutter

and it will bring the rain

 

a song is best sung by a dreamer

who believes his lines deeply so

a person who lives to come and go

but returns to the artist\'s daughter
