He Paints a Picture for Our Hearts
His subjects fascinating,
Colors vibrating,
Detail so breath-taking –
He paints a picture for our hearts.
His impressions energizing,
Expressions hypnotizing,
Reflections mesmerizing –
He paints a picture for our hearts.
[Bridge}
His books and stories so simple and plain,
His messages so relevant.
He brings to life working women and men,
With the stroke of a key or a pen.
So humble and humanistic,
His characters realistic,
Signs and banners so artistic –
He paints a picture for our hearts.
Pen and pencil innovative,
H is stencils so creative,
His brush so orchestrated – he paints a picture for our hearts.
With his working class art – he paints a picture for our hearts.
[Bridge]
Like so many, he doesn’t get much due,
No pay or prize or recognized.
But after he’s gone, his work will shine on,
A portal to the past of the men and women who gave us a better life!
His style so unassuming,
Touch so real and moving,
His works a thing of beauty,
He paints a picture for your heart,
He paints a picture for our hearts,
With his working class art,
He paints a picture for sour heart.
