A Boy Stands Still

Acrylic

The boy stands still, 
his small figure painted in earthy strokes, 
as if he has paused time itself.

Before him, a bird takes flight— 
wings spread wide against the soft sky, 
a messenger of freedom, 
a fleeting miracle in motion.

He is caught in the hush of wonder, 
mesmerized by nature’s language, 
a quiet awe blooming in his chest.

In this moment, 
he is not reaching, not chasing— 
only being, 
his spirit lifted by the simple grace 
of life unfolding before his eyes.
