TINTORETTO PAINTING HIS DEAD DAUGHTER

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

About your hair
The flowers
That you picked
When a child
Now a paintbrush
Captures death
Awaiting your
Sunrise.

The room it drains
In fading light
Upon grieving pain
Lost in flight
A kiss farewell
In colour fills
A broken heart.
Sorrow it spills.

In a moment frozen
Centre stage
Art peforms
Its unspoken page
Image begs
Please release
My deepest loss
To eternal sleep.
