Chameleon Soul

R4,200.00

Mixed media sketch: pencil, pastel, charcoal and acrylics.

Chameleon Soul was written with the theme ‘Metamorphosis’, for submission to the Literary Journal of the University of Texas. It speaks in symbols of the transformation between the seasons and personifies natural elements with words like ‘tears’, ‘roar’, ‘scars’. In deeper contemplation it speaks of inner turmoil experienced during mental changes under adverse circumstances.

Description

‘On misty morn

At early dawn

Crickets play

Grasses sway

 

A ray of sun

Embracing fun

Birds on breeze

Through walls of trees

 

Washed-out light

Shadows bright

Night sky stars

Scars alight

 

Rustling winds

Leaves all kinds

Fields at sway

Amber grain

 

Chameleon soul,

Afore we know

Tears will pour

Skies will roar

 

Afresh from soul

Seeds will sow

Bulbs will bloom

From coloured loom

 

Winds will die

To clear the sky

And once again,

Unwavering chain’
