Oh Brian, this is one of my favourites, you are so excellent, I bow to you!
I need to flip the page in my art book and let someone draw me a whole new outline!
Great spirit, smart poem!
Nice! I enjoy waking up before dawn and watching the sun come up every morning too! And I have often said that each new day is a new canvas. We think alike!
Great and cute. Only you can do it.
Lovely.
while I like this very much Brian I suggest if you really, I mean really want to be painted you go get a game of naked paintball up. Dare Ya!
I like that one a lot.. 160 could be tough
This is just gorgeous! One of my favorites, too.
lol WM...that may sting a bit...and you even dared me...
nice. very motivating.
Today I'm feeling better from my cold. I'm painting my CANVAS with exercising; reading; working from home; smiling a lot at my 13 year old son who is home this weekend. Enjoying a cozy home.. eating well......and knowing that my cold is almost gone...
Fog lifting from my canvas.. having a cold feels a bit like being in a fog.. and i like the idea of orange - pink breathing in a sunny day for me.
The sun is out too today after it was cloudy for days..
Happy day Brian...
I hope your children are enjoying their toys from Christmas..
Perfect poem for today. A fresh start is right in order!
You have such a gift with words. I love how you weave them together.
I wish I could put this realization into practice. I need to start with a fresh canvas and work to fill it in the way that I want it!
Excellent. Each day is a fresh canvas. I will try to remember that.
Michigan looks a lot like Mordor from Jan. thru March...:)
What a lovely image.
Hi Brian- hope you and your are having a good Christmas week- bet the boys were excited eh?
Now then Brian, you are not one to renege on a dare are ya?
Ah, the king of blogs and the wiz of the Sunday 160
You have MY favorite recipe of: Light Painting and Wearing the day as your own!
The recipe is out!
I will try one today, thanks for a great year, brian
Hi Brian...I'm a new follower....I love the poem
love the idea!!!!
Sunrise? I know of this. I have a fabulous view of mountains and water from my living room window. And I've mentioned many times that it's like a painting that is always the same view but still is constantly changing. I get pink-pink sunrises and the most amazing sunsets you can imagine in the spring, summer, and fall. In winter, things are a little bit grey - but still the painting is there. And it's wonderful. Thanks, Brian for your word painting.
Sorry - last post was a "too quick on the trigger" duplicate of first post.
That is sooo lovely! A wonderful visual and way to view life.
today is
a fresh canvas
on the easel of
my life.
Indeed... so beautifully said !
do we have to paint you? Whaaa, what a responsibility! Can we go wild? Mix big strokes of colors ...or should it be a more delicate juxtaposition of colors?
Thank you for painting our day with beautiful images and word combinations.
Your words always paint for me. Great 160. Thanks for playing.
Have you ever been published? Your words are never campy or trite. Today aptly describes what you do. You paint a new masterpiece with each story, as your words paint the world of your mind and heart. Bravo. Lisa ;)
Lovely. . . .You are the best word smith I know!
I'm with Daniel, a new canvas and starting again would be great.
Very nice..I'm glad every day is a fresh new start.
So...how many times did you count out the letters until you got it just right? ;)
I so enjoy my visits here. This was a lovely, relaxing post Christmas message.
I'm going to put you in my reader, so I remember to come by!
Really good stuff, Brian! Loved it!
simple and beautiful
i saw the sky
Ohhhhh!
"today is a fresh canvas.."
Lovely!
This is one of my favorites too. I really loved this one a lot. It is just breathtaking.
Hmm why wait until NYE to be a fresh canvas.
Beautifully composed!! Thank you and Happy New Year
Hugs
SueAnn
Just breath taking. Seriously.
Hey....that is great...I like the idea of a fresh canvas every day...to erase is a bit too messy.
A very colorful 160, Brian!
Smiles!!
Brian,
As Boitano stated while skating once; our lives our as a white canvas: what we do with them is our choice. We are destined to create or cut our own way and life through creativity of compostion, style, and determination.
Great post!
The Bach
This looks like a fun challenge. Loved this!
Your writing just keeps getting better.
More please.
Really? I can paint you? Yeah, get over here!
i wonder who the artist would be, Brian. my favourite one, i think, well - it's a toss up between gustav klimt and andrew wyeth. somedays i feel like picasso has painted me. but no one would recognize me as a picasso. just that i feel all jumbled and in pieces and abstract. i loved the imagery in this. you really impress(ionist) me. ;)
What can I say in 160 characters? Never this much!
Amazing stuff there... Cheers...
I am ever so late to say Merry Christmas to you and yours!
New canvas, new year ........ I will wait as I am apt to want to wallow awhile in the remnants of Christmas......... Maybe you should publish something in the new year?
Thank goodness every day is a new one.
This reminds me of the colors I saw on the horizon as we drove into Atlantic City last night. I wished I had my camera available.
love, love, LOVE that first line.
And the last.
I can picture the horizon, Brian.
Loved this...
Very pretty. I love sunrises.
lovely mood,
Happy Monday!
paint you green so that you grin,
paint you yellow so that you glow,
just kidding!
Hope that you enjoy a graceful evening!
Brian, this is beautiful!
its so beautiful... we can paint the our life the way we want to... but we don't...

Brian
This may be a duplicate, computers oh my
Your poem is wonderful, and may I borrow your paint brushes and paint the sky with water colors of peace and joy for everyone.
