Renascence Painting

I do not have words for the vision of this painting - It could only painted. From the night it poured heavily on my roof, with the sound of thunder, lightening and rain that one could feel closer to death and simultaneously, a rebirth. Poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay titled "Renascence" found me after the completion of this painting that provided words for my vision of this painting. “...I screamed, and— lo! Infinity Came down and settled over me; Forced back my scream into my chest, Bent back my arm upon my breast.. ..Ah, awful weight! Infinity Pressed down upon the finite Me! ..Yet lay the weight so close about There was no room for it without. And so beneath the weight lay I And suffered death, but could not die. ..Long had I lain this, craving death, When quietly the earth beneath Gave way, and inch by inch, so great At last had grown the crushing weight, Into the earth I sank till I Full six feet under ground did lie, And sank no more,— there is no weight Can follow here, however great. ..Deep in the earth I rested now; Cool is it’s hand upon the brow ..And all at once, and over all The pitying rain began to fall; I lay and heard each pattering hoof Upon my lowly, thatched roof, And seemed to love the sound far more Than ever I had done before. For rain it hath a friendly sound To one who’s six feet underground; And scarce the friendly voice or face; A grave is such a quiet place. The rain, I said, is kind to come And speak to me in my new home ..O God, I cried, give me new birth, And put me back upon the earth! Upset each cloud’s gigantic gourd And let the heavy rain, down poured In one big torrent, set me free, Washing my grave away from me! ...The soul can split the sky in two, And let the face of God shine through. But East and West will pinch the heart That can not keep them pushed apart, And he whose soul is flat — the sky Will cave in on him by and by.”
