ROYAL FLARE ORCHID paintography by Michael Forbus

ROYAL FLARE ORCHID paintography and photography by Michael (miguel) Forbus QUOTES BY PABLO NERUDA, THE GREAT CHILEAN POET I want to do with you what spring does with cherry trees. Love is so short and forgetting is so long. The moon lives in the lining of your skin. Only with a burning patience can we conquer the splendid City which will give light, justice and dignity to all mankind. In this way the song will not have been sung in vain. Someday, somewhere -- anywhere, unfailingly, you'll find yourself, and that, and only that, can be the happiest or bitterest hour of your life. Impunity for the great thief, and jail for the thief who steals a loaf. In one kiss, you'll know all I haven't said. Today is today, and yesterday is gone. There is no doubt. Shyness is a condition foreign to the heart -- a category, a dimension which leads to loneliness. They may mow down all the flowers, but they can't stop spring. Does he who waits forever suffer more than he who never waited for anybody? I believed that the way passed through Man, and that it was from there that destiny had to emerge. Laughter is the language of the soul.

Very beautiful artwork!

Artist Reply: Jan, my deepest gratitude for your kindness and lovely words. You have made the painting worth something with your compliments. Without your eyes they are nothing. All art is nothing without the eyes of the viewer. It is you that makes it all worth doing. Michael
