This painting incorporates lyrics from a song I wrote in 1996.
I thought of thoughts just yesterday...
I couldn't quite conceive.
I dreamed some dreams on top of that...
and dared not to believe.
I whispered love in life's sweet ear...
and pledged to do my best.
I summoned faith within my soul...
that put me to the test.
Forever may I love...
and faithfully believe,
and think some thoughts...
and dream some dreams...
forever to conceive.
