I was with an elderly man this evening , he had no teeth and not long to live , i was making him a cup of tea and we both remained silent but i could tell he wanted to talk . Milk i asked , yes please , sugar no thanks a wee biscuit , no thanks . then he grinned a gummy grin and spoke . A couple of nights ago I woke up during the night and the curtain was open so i looked out the window , he was still grinning but wider as he spoke , he said it was beautiful , he described the way the night sky looked with moon shining and the shifting sky , He knew he had seen something special , I mean really seen it and not even the thought of dying could wipe the smile of his face.. I told him I knew what he meant ,for this is how I see and this is why I paint. Foss
