Pieces (mirror etch)

This one was hard to photograph! It took about 3 hours. The dark colored puzzle pieces was etched on the back of the mirror (so light shines all the way thru).  The white (or frosted) images are on the front of the mirror. It gives it kind of a 3D effect. I'm going to try to find a way to frame it where I can mount some LED lights inside the frame so light shines thru.  Any suggestions?

Motion

Days travel the mountain roads,
going up and going down.
One minute on the peak,
two more near the ground.
It is best to enjoy the view
when cruising on the top.
relive it when u are low
and your spirits start to drop.
The rain is not all bad
it made u appreciate the trees.
Plus the sun is not all good
it may blur what u need to see.
Sit back, enjoy the ride.
So many people were left behind.
They would love another drive
to build a healthy, stronger mind.

Violent Attic bottle (etch)

This is my latest glass etching project. The back has my poem Other Eyes on it. The bottle is clear but I put blue liquid in it to get some clear pictures of the etching.  Just like all of my artwork, it is for sale. Send me an offer if you would like to own it.

Glide vs Fly

Pushing forward, cracked rear view
I hear u clearly and keep driving.
Alive by the will to survive I strive
to surpass those without the gas to
live a life worth living. Forever giving
but not forever forgiving. One chance
to advance past the wall I installed to
stall the thieves clawing with slim tipped
claws trying to withdraw the last drop
of compassion I keep to build upon
once my foundation shows flaws.
I no longer value the empty promises
of those I once held high until I let them
go and they tried to glide; thats not
the same as taking a leap and leaning to fly.
Im still here and its still clear they
dont want me to shine. So I brush off
my glow and rush to buff off whats mine.
those same people walk around half blind.
Trying to spell big words only I can define.
Braincells to paper, paper to voice, voice to
ears, and back again. In the end im still real
and true to who knew me from within.
With a smirk and a grin.

Insight

Good to know i'm good to go,
anxious for what is ahead.
Ready to grow, ready to show
this soul is so far from dead.
Filling pages, filling hearts,
breaking cages, walking smart.
filling canvas, living art.
Filling holes; fresh new start.
Spreading wings, giving things
that money can not buy.
Anything I did not bring
slowed me when I tried to fly.
I travel light; I am built for flight.
No trap can hold me down.
mind is tight with my insight
and the new hope I have found.
