Impossibilty br br br The sun has set beyond the hills but the afterglow still spills br pure pastel colours across the sky. Demonstrating artistry br few human artists dare believe that they can ever achieve br but still they feel that they must try. Although their efforts testify br it is a task beyond their skill. A dream that they cannot fulfil. br br Their earthly palette can’t supply the heavenly colours of the sky. br So they retire disconsolate the light has gone, the hour grows late. br Tomorrow they will try anew; it’s something that they have to do. br Compelled, obsessed and driven by, a burning need to paint the sky. br They must continue and they will. Attempting the impossible. br br 4-Dec-06br br ivor .
