A Painting


for Georgia

you –

are a painting
in another room

shrouded in white,
and in white’s sunlight

appearing, accompanied,
beyond wide entrance-ways

and apart: from these blocked
blacks, these rounded blues

​
painted, for Art and always,
in fragrant oranges, in –
in strange yellows…
​

​​Kī mai ki ahau, He aha te mea nui o te ao?
Māku e kī atu, Ehara i 'te tangata, te tangata', engari ko te aroha e!
