Karma

– Poetry by Guenevere Kimber, Art by Ian Welling –

 

One push starts it all.

One kind word can make someone smile.

One smile can make a person’s day.

One good day can lead to an attitude;

One shall never diminish,

A light so bright no one can extinguish. 

One smile leads to two.

Two smiles lead to four.

Four smiles leads to several.

Several leads to plenty.

Plenty creates un-dimming light.

One push starts it all.

He creates art that explores the subconscious and the otherworldly spaces that exist behind our narrow perception, and our shallow grip on reality.
