The procession of the Priestesses
- 2003
- Oil on Canvas
- 70 x 60 cm
Priestesses in white robes, climbing
to the Acropolis- abode of sanctity and learning.
Journeying on the mysterious road, approaching the pure light.
A poem by Harry Costin- inspired by the painting
The Procession
Five guardians
of Wisdom old
climb the Path
that leads to the Temple.
The moon above
Rides the clouds
Like a heavenly arch.
Stars light up the heavens
And the temple rises above…
Its columns like arms
Lifted and praying
To the sky blue of hope
Beyond all earthly delusions.
