Time slows down for no one
But oddly enough it seems to slow down for the painter
Letting his imagination soar to new highest
Once his brush touches the smooth canvas
It doesn't stop
The colors and images keep appearing
Time just seems to melt away
Getting slower and slower with every stroke
Soon it stops completely
Letting the painter have freedom
Letting him have just enough time to paint another world
Time slows down for no one
Time is everyone's enemy
Except the painters.

Good write M. In that case, it's not always true that 'time goes slowly when one is NOT enjoying oneself'!
Ahh...yes...
“Time is everyone’s enemy”...
...for those who don’t have
enough of it...
....and for those who
have too much of it...!
Awesome choice of a
Surrealist painting for
your interesting write
about time! He is one
of my favorite painters!
Enjoyed the read!
Thank you!
Hi there, I like your poem and Salvador Dalis' painting - Syd
M.E.M., this is the best write-up on this Salvador Dali painting I have ever read! I is also the only one I have ever read. 🙂
Seriously, you did write something special here.
Good write, that painting is iconic in the movement of time. His other paintings are well worth looking at as well.
