My Masterpiece
If I could paint the fairest sight
that gave my soul the most delight,
it would not be the crimson dawn
or the golden West when day is gone...
Nor would it be the arching sky
of blue with white clouds passing by
nor moonlight on a lake or sea
nor soaring bird
nor stately tree...
My pictures would not be the snows
of winter or summer's sweet rose
or the brilliant hues of fall or spring
draped in soft misty green,
these bring my soul a wondrous joy and thrill!
But if I had an artist's skill,
I'd combine all these beauties there
within one masterpiece, one so rare.
For I would paint a little child
who looked at me and so sweetly smiled!
