Nature's magician.

Parenthesis:

This poem is dedicated to my favorite contemporary artist - Tadashi Asoma. He specializes in painting extraordinary pieces of landscape paintings and his art has to be some of the best.

Tadashi Asoma, born in Japan in 1923, received his education at Saitama Teachers College, Urawa, the Bijitsu Gakko, Tokyo; Grand Chaumiere, Paris and the Art Students League, NY.

Among his works are:

Noonday Dreams;
Magic Afternoon;
Water Lilies;
Afternoon Calm;
Morning Light;
Daybreak;
Lily Pond In Summer;
Perfect Autumn;
Indian Summer;
Lily Pond;
Lake View Reflections;

Nature's magician:

Such magical visions,
nature captured in it's magnificence.
Beauty for all to behold and be spellbound.
Such graceful brush strokes.

A magician performing his tricks on canvas,
treasures that will last forever.
Such warm and rich hues,
bright and colorful views.

Your landscapes will never dull.
Interesting and always capturing my every imagination.
A great justice rendered to nature through your art.
Such skill and flexibility.

Timeless masterpieces for countless generations to keep.
Always appealing to the eye.
Such beautiful interpretation of our wonderful earth.
Thank you for such an exquisite legacy.
