Seeking Sanctuary

Surprise me...

<

when I feel fearful and frantic

 

assailed by disrupting static

 

whatever else it be

 

my garden is my sanctuary

 

a refuge from life's travails

 

when all else I try fails

 

no temple altar to lay hands on

 

just gentle breeze and sun

 

flowers blooming to delight

 

and birds celebrating in flight

 

no bad can reach me there

 

while I walk awhile on air

 

ABOUT THE ARTIST

 

Chuck Edelson was born in Chicago on Oct. 8th  1929.   His childhood was overshadowed by the Great Depression and World War II. His first loves were books, movies and music. A high school teacher encouraged him to develop latent art skills. After a short an unsatisfying university experience, driven by news of the holocaust of the Jews in Europe, he left the U.S.A for a pioneering life in the new state of Israel where he  and his family farmed the land. Along with his work as a farmer he continued his creative side painting and sculpting mainly themes from the bible and the holocaust. Now retired from farm work he still sculpts, draws and of late has begun to write poetry after few and far between attempts in the past.
