the golden grains of harvest
the water buffalo's ride
the rooster's call at dawn
waking you up at night
the nipa hut is blooming
with chatter and surprise
down the green tall acacia tree
with its shadows of delight
bananas in the back canopy
wait until you see it ripe
the monkeys like them most
in tinge yellow sweet and smiles
the pot is boiling under fire
menu's of pure and perfect light
the palates will be happy
stomachs full will grind
nature when it's captured
the birds will chirp all high
the crickets will buzz afar
as humans mingle, contemplate and laugh
life is depicted as true
straight forwardly drawn
no winding roads, no hidden goals
no guessing game for you...
thanks to the late amorsolo, life depicted at one of its best. we marvel on the talent of artists who could paint an image very close to its original form. that is who fernando amorsolo was. a gifted and a blessed individual who can perform such kind of a feat not only capturing beautiful nature around us but portraits of human beings as well and he did it with great pizazz. lots are called but few can deliver. lots have other ways to express themselves in art but nothing tops those that can reproduce reality to its nearest form. kudos, though sadly amorsolo is gone like most humans before him did. like every living creature when the time comes. not a waste of talent but talent realized to its fullest potential. again few can deliver in deed as most can only try...
