Fluttering hearts
beat like drums
against Painted Feathers
Their lives speed by,
fragile and fleeting
like the cherry blossoms
of spring.
Life’s most magnificent picture
painted with watercolor,
on thin paper.
Frantic,
yet peaceful.
Bold,
but elusive.
I wonder,
if they live life fast
or if we
are just slow.
I’m in the middle of my hummingbird watercolor and needed to give the painting a melody:)
