Painting in Walsall Art  gallery  UK

    
        
They sought my eye, the two      
naked as God intended.      
 Bright day illuminating      
each structured limb and pore.      
A child, on his mother's thigh      
tightly held her arm,      
smiled upon her breast      
his man-hood undisturbed;      
saw his mother as she was,      
loved and lovely.      
Venus was in charge      
Eros nowhere to be seen.      
They asked me look closer      
see how they were wrought,      
his dimple arms,      
his love he felt for her.      
She in turn  caused  
me look again   ...   ...      
marvel at the sight,      
naked love not half so sweet.      
You may never see this picture,      
If you do, or something close,      
see them as did the artist,
