Gloaming Lightly

                                                                                        Author: Gloaming Lightly by van Gogh

Rays of the Afternoon Sun (here)

the 12 given words:
wonder smudge conjuring
gloaming (the time of day when it is becoming dark but is not yet fully dark)
seeds emerge hours prayers chances
grateful whispered stained

to wonder at the strained images that often
smudged his mind conjuring a complex mixture
of colours and shapes that surprisingly blended
well within the gloaming rays that unashamedly 
intruded from the outside through the window panes

grateful for all the seeds of imagined stories
that emerged from hours of  prayers in creating masterpieces 
where chances were gratefully acknowledged  
to painstakingly provide relief whispered 
for his brilliant but stained and tragic life
