Gayford Gallery

A poem about the wildlife artist, Stephen Gayford Imagine God gave you a gift with which to bless us all And simply let your life to drift so that you might stand tall... And in the years that followed on, your blessings blossomed well, Such that your doubts were truly gone, what stories you could tell... Just think of those who stand and paint, made famous over time, Such that their art is not just quaint, but thought of as sublime... With auctions here and auctions there and exhibitions, too... And compliments beyond compare because of what they do... Each dedicated artist knows the sacrifices made And though each legend grows and grows, it's just that each obeyed... Their destiny is in their hands, their paintings on our walls, Their galleries across the lands wherever greatness calls... Perhaps a hundred hours done for each and every week, Preserving still a sense of fun in artwork that's unique... With family values well expressed in lions, tigers, bears, Our Stephen Gayford does his best, remembered in our prayers... Denis Martindale, copyright, March 2012. The poem is based on the magnificent website gayfordgallery-dot-com where we can visit and enjoy wonderful artwork meant for one and all.
