Wall writings
The sun has come out and it is time to do some painting! It has been a while so I thought to do two sides of the wall at once. A while back I had a conversation with the postman and he said he had enjoyed the Rumi poetry so I thought I’d put some more on the walls for our delight. Here’s looking forward to lighter evenings and warmer times. Thank you Eugene for your thought for the day posted on facebook. I hope you are tickled that it has landed up on a wall in Splott.
A while back as I was painting I had a chat with Jo and then a little note posted in my letterbox suggested this idea. So I hope you like this Jo and this is what you meant!
I enjoyed painting the balloons.
I am on a roll, the sunshine has inspired me to paint the Mother of Pearl poem on my door. I’ve been thinking about it for ages. As I was in the yard I heard a child outside in the street chanting the poem in a very rhythmical way and then there were more voices talking but I couldn’t catch what was being said. Thank you for your poem Mine.
We are indeed having extraordinary weather, after the wild rainstorms washing off my designs in the winter to not being able to paint in the middle of the day because the paint dried too quickly in the sun and turned into a sticky globalular mess. Global Warming anyone?
The First…….. E=MC2 a poem by Mererid Hopwood written after a residency in Aberystwyth organised by Byw Nawr (Live Now) an initiative of the National Health Service to encourage people to talk about death openly bringing it into the everyday. It is a beautiful and inspiring poem.
The Second ……two sections from two poems by Maya Angelou ‘ Still I Rise’ and ‘Phenomenal Woman.’ Her voice is so strong and colourful. I hope she would be happy with the dancing lady cheering up the streets of Splott.
