Through my partnership with the Carriage House Gallery, I was invited to display a painting at the Newton Medical Center. I decided to put the painting "Message thru the Glass" on display. I painted it in 2010.
If you have a reason to go to the hospital, for yourself, family, or to visit someone, it will be on display in the main hallway. Check it out!
The Message thru the Glass
Her eyes aren’t what they used to be.
The vision seems to fade.
Her hair has turned white,
Memories of her youth, now she’d love to trade.
The joints just don’t work.
As getting out of the chair she must try.
Memories of her long gone husband.
Sometimes makes her cry.
The whirlwind of the grandkids,
On a visit, at first, is exciting and grand,
But soon these, new fangled electronics and games,
Loses her, in a world she now doesn’t understand.
But the one thing she does know,
Is the certainity of God’s unchanging word.
She studies God’s beginnings…and His glory,
Bringing her peace, understanding, and a heart reassured.
