Thoughts on Paintings by Chagall

Chagall's paintings incorporating all the experiences of life: art, culture, religion; the physical and abstract; the living and non-living components of our environments; earth and sky;  stars and universe; all part of the heady whirl of existence shared by two people in love.


All is Flow


In exhilaration

colours burst their banks

all is flow;


no more bondage of bones ,

nothing tethered:

animals of the fields, birds of the air;


no edges nor corners

but fish-like, curved all to all:

all is flow.


No division:

all that is rooted has wings,

fly into one as notes from a violin.


Gods, stone, water:

light as thought;

you and I,


our loves and togetherness

one with this murmurating life;

all is flow.
