hideyourface (Jun 26, 2006)

All the diamonds in this world
That mean anything to me
Are conjured up by wind and sunlight
Sparkling on the sea

I ran aground in a harbour town
Lost the taste for being free
Thank God He sent some gull-chased ship
To carry me to sea

Two thousand years and half a world away
Dying trees still grow greener when you pray

Silver scales flash bright and fade
In reeds along the shore
Like a pearl in sea of liquid jade
His ship comes shining
Like a crystal swan in a sky of suns
His ship comes shining.

You and I (and everybody else) know you typically bug the hell out of me, but this is great and so is the verse you put with it. Your last three pieces here are really good. :)

WELL thanks. I didn't put any more effort into these than I did with previous pictures. I can guess they just magically decided to look better.

"Effort" doesn't always produce good art, it has to be combined with other things. I do believe in magic, but I don't think that's what happened here. You have it in you, and especially when you don't try too hard. When your "reins" get loosened, you'll be able to run. :)
