“Small Boy” –

I made this sketch in the darkness when my son was sleeping one night, the poem came after…I wanted to make sure I got the sketch finished before he moved….

The Poem written around the drawing reads -

Late, late at night
and no light
just a little light

and your small outline
in the shadows

dreaming of the beloved cats
or the exotic cup of water -
the perfect size for a hand.

Far away and quiet
boy
small boy

With skin so smooth
it shines in the dark.
