Chinese painting on silk,
mountains thin to wisps of atmosphere.
Rembrandt sketches,
more lively than his paint.
Childhood picture book,
less detailed than remembered.
The viewer embellishes the viewed,
follows the rabbit down the hole,
stops to chat with the hobbled peasant,
traces the winding path
past the disappearing point
past the artist's vision
and steps into inspiration.
