if picasso joined
my 305 collective
he would have no paint.

creativity
an artist's greatest asset

Miami bus stop
I wait with my new painting
Hours. Then bus splashes.

Marlene E. Adams
Enthralled child whispers:
Five days of classical songs
Are stuck in my head.

Night out on the town
found the venue was closed down
Two feet from a dance

Light on the water
Notes singing through the palm fronds
Sudden dusk and still

Water quenching thirst...
good food nourishing bodies...
the arts feeding souls.

very sunny place
yet the shade is everywhere
shine on in the dark
