Sunday Picture Challenge Goes On A Quest!
Welcome to the CPC’s
Simple Sunday Picture Challenge!
Our featured artist this week is a very interesting character
who lives in France, Cyril Rolandi,
aka AquaSixio on deviantart.com.
http://aquasixio.deviantart.com/
His Deviant Art page includes a long autobiography/introspection
in which he describes himself as “realistic and quite pessimistic
…I don’t think of myself as an artist, but as a simple Photoshop user
…I work as (a) psychologist.”
Water often figures in his “surreal and fantasy style” art,
including this eight year old but extremely popular piece,
which is our featured image,
and is titled “Save Our Souls,”
for which Cyril wrote accompanying text
which might be of further muse use.
Save Our Souls – 2005
Many are floating on the ocean
But who is sure to know about them?
Many are calling for help in the silence
Who shall recieve their message?
I found some bottles, but there is a problem
Who can help me now ?
S.O.S.

SOULSEARCH
Upon the evelasting sea
human souls float perilously
at the whims of storm-tossed waves
which threaten all with cold wet graves
and seem to rule the choice of saves.
Yet there’s bright setting sun to guide
the souls upon life’s rolling ride.
Its name may change by time’s decree,
obscured by dark clouds it may be,
but it can guide for those who see.
They all wear fools upon their heads
and float upon frail tipsy tread.
Lessons in jars found on the way
sent afloat near trails’ end gray
with messages of yesterday
can help to guide souls’ destiny.

I’m so very glad I stopped back and checked. I love the painting and will again ponder and return. My muse is still floundering a few days back as I just now posted a piece on the “Kindness Day” challenge. Greetings and Good Afternoon from Southern California.

Seems like be lost
Lost at sea
Where waters a bonded
To much for my little umbrella and me
I have the note tied so all kin see
If I am to be turn over board
My flag will so stand tall
An arrow I put upon my head
Points the way
North are south
East to the west I am bonded
The high wind blows
I look forward
Pushin the ties
Dark clouds rollin in the red skies I see light and thats just where I am bond
Soldier On Sea
Lost
Soon to be
Soldier On Shore
Found
