| "Crimson Thread" #1080. Original refractured watercolor. 34"x36" on wraparound panel, 1" deep. $1,500. | |
| A crimson thread runs through the sky before dawn. The following poem is also painted into the painting | |
| "Crimson Thread". | |
| The world is turning into dawn, and I | |
| can see a crimson thread start to appear | |
| announcing that the newest day is near - | |
| it makes me greet the beauty with a sigh. | |
| Soon the ribbon's red will turn to gold | |
| and other wisps softly to scarlet turn - | |
| water, under influence of light will burn | |
| such colors that it awes us to behold | |
| the transition from nighttime into day | |
| and cause to wonder how we could deserve | |
| this vision - just for living on a curve - | |
| and leaves us without words that we can say, | |
| only the thought that perhaps we should do right | |
| to earn the reward that brings the end of night. | |
