Ha...he looks too gentle to be a fighter! Oh yes, his body is strong...but that beautiful face...so full of compassion... If I were a fellow boxer, I would find it almost impossible to throw a punch! Guess you may call me sentimental...but to my eyes, this man is for hugging...;))
He actually trained as a fighter in his younger years. The gloves and head gear reflect that time in his life. I think he was/is too kind and gentle a person though, to have had a successful career as a boxer. Thank you
The sketches, paintings and sometimes the writing I post on this site express what needs to be known about me. I attempt to record on a daily basis what I observe, what I imagine, and sometimes what I dream about.
I hope you enjoy my art, and the dialogue.

Anthony...I just wanted to express how saddened I was to hear of your recent loss.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you...in deepest compassion...
I was with him. It was expected. He lived a good long 90 years. Happening a week ago. Your poem is wonderful and the timing was just right.
