Who like pictures
With thousands of years
Between us.
You speak in images
With dyes and charcoal sticks
And show me your world
In fleeting glimpses,
All the things
Important to you.
I feel close
As if reaching back in my mind
But you have no voice
Speaking inside,
Still I see your world
And it's not unlike mine.
So I paint
What you might have said
Feeling your thoughts
Inside my head
Making marks
On a computer screen instead.
i Wonder if those marks can last thousands of years
I would say they are less likely to survive the ravages of time but cave art may still be there :)

Nice poetry dude... have you considered Haiku? Just a thought. Resteemed!
What a perfect match up in what you wrote as to how you feel as you look at this photo or even other cave drawings. <3
Good writing, according to the image, is what I value most of the words when they keep pace and can say and transmit a lot.
Very interesting and subtle. Well thought out and flowing. I enjoyed it. Thank You.
a perfect poem.
meaningful words as if they are dancing. I like it so much. I realized they felt.
I congratulate you on this.
we are for sure strange creatures in the real sense of the term
Stumbled on your blog recently and i must say that i commend your writing skills and creativity, worthy of emulation. Expect something from me soon as a proof of learning.
Keep the good work up @johnjgeddes
One of the best piece of writing I read today.
Beautiful work, and so true. We aren't really all that different from where we started, are we? Love the image you paired with this piece as well!
