Water’s Mirror

Water's Mirror

24 x 48 inches, oil/wax on canvas, 2005
Giclees available upon request.

Preexistence

They took my body
not my soul.

On days 
when the wind quiets
and the lake stills
I can be seen 

As I once was
intact
in all my beauty
reflected in water’s mirror.

My body 
exists no more
but can be seen.
My life force
lives on forever.

– Shelley Lowell
