Still Life:Painting: Old Bouquet

Dr Abe V Rotor

Old Bouquet in acrylic by AVR 2005

Still life - one says, when life comes to a stand;
      another, scripted life on the table.
Still life - favorite subject of artists old and new,
      hanging on some forgotten wall.

Still life - when we cease to move along,
      to be center of attraction,
unmindful of Salvador Dali's Melting Clocks,
      and Massenet's Meditation.

Still life - beauty captured and soon lost,
      freshly plucked, bound together
into bouquet for fleeting admiration,
      orphaned from the Garden forever.~
