If

.... life were a painting, which painting would it be?

If the gym gave me the same exhilaration that the painting a herd of horses did¹

I would be there all the time

If anguish was as tormented as the painting of the lamb²

I don’t know that we’d survive

Sometimes I guess we don’t

If paint strokes are as beautiful as Lee Ufan makes them look³

I don’t think we’d ever need more than one

If life were as quaint as the picnic on the grass, ⁴

Would we ever leave

If the night sky was as beautiful as starry night,⁵

Would we lose interest

If life was a painting, which painting would it be.

Or would it be all three … four … five
