“An Artist’s Eye” by Keith Basar

This poem is dedicated to my wise, sweet friend M. A person of incalculable passion for life and the path she now excitingly follows. 

~K

and artistic touch?

that searches the stillness of the night

for its next expression?

“Maddie” by Keith Basar

When I thought I’d never again share space with your kind 

Miraculously, there you were.

You made pleasing your pack (our family) a selfless mission. 

And my God, that glowing, feminine, molasses pie face of yours

could light up the darkest of days
