Your Interests About

This life I've led,
full of daydreams
and half-truths,
has passed by.

Come lay down beside me,
as I recite to thee,
our memories together.
Perhaps, you'll remember me.

I miss you so dearly,
when I can't see,
or hold you or
sit with thee.

Thy wish, my command,
is what we'd say.
You no longer remember,
any of our todays.

Alberto Giacometti (1901 – 1966) was a Swiss sculptor, painter, draftsman and printmaker. Giacometti was one of the most important sculptors of the 20th century. His work was particularly influenced by artistic styles such as Cubism and Surrealism.   Between 1938 and 1944 Giacometti's sculptures had a maximum height of 2.75 inches. After World War II, Giacometti created his most famous sculptures: his extremely tall and slender figurines. In Giacometti's whole body of work, his painting constitutes only a small part. After 1957, however, his figurative paintings were equally as present as his sculptures.

Blue eyes or Hazel,
it remains to be seen,
if it is ok to be happy,
if they aren't green?

A current, swirling eddies,
under the Willow tree,
carrying my love
back to thee.

Through the garden,
along the path,
during the evening.
Pleasant for me,
the scent of the flowers,
sounds of pleasure,
from the one,
strolling next to me.

Press forward,
with your skills,
talent will arise
and you will be,
very pleased,
perhaps, even
surprised.
