What Is Not Yours...
What is not yours
You can not own,
Hold not your hand so tightly,
But open, to be held in the air and the wind.
What is not yours
You can not harm,
Worry will not add to it's days,
For in it's freedom hope will remain.
What is not yours
You can not lessen,
Demanding what it cannot give,
For integrity penetrates the unseen soul,
And will not be denied!
What is not yours
You can not reason,
Fragile thoughts fail to intimately know
What can only be known through
the eyes of Faith alone!

PSP7 and Corel. All of the Native
American images are tubes from
Winter's Tubes which you can find at
www.winterstubes.com/index.html/.
The Rose, Frame, grass, mountains, trees
were all done through PSP7 with the final
touches accomplished in Corel...Cheryl

This is a wonderful artwork, with all the necessary elements to make up a great image the poem just adds the finishing touch.

It has a look I have seen in a gallery near the Wind River mountains in the land of the Shoshone. Other paintings in Ouray gave good counsel. I wondered how the tipis had been renedered as they did not have the look of today.

I must agree strongly with the sentiment. Very moving
