(portrait of Barnabas Collins) acrylic on canvas, 22x28 inches NOT FOR SALE, collection of the artist "And that which now is, then, shall be, No more but this--The dark dead past. Alas! what gloom steals over me?- My heart cries out aloud for thee: Come back but once--one moment's space! Let me not be forgot In that uncareful land where thou dost dwell-- I seek no heaven where thou art not. If I shall see no more thy face Then I bid hope farewell. If love's fond dream be flown There is no gaping gulf of hell Holds fear for me. If love be mortal, let Death bar the door-- I care not what awaits on that dark shore, I am myself--alone." Robert Burns Wilson, 1887 |
