Wish you were here
To see what I see
One hundred raindrops
basting under the morning sun
clinging to the evergreen
across the garden
a parade of aromas and colors
flowers in bloom
oh, beautiful flowers
The sky
a reflection of the sea
a blue I have never seen
bright as bright can be
yes, bright as bright can be
The wind
gently gathering the leaves
like a shepherd
rounding up his sheep
rounding beautiful woolly sheep
Wish you were here
to hear what I hear
From every window
sweet melodies of song birds
cascading songs of love birds
pure harmony
oh, pure harmony
The children
playing in the streets
their laughter
echoe in the wind
like a piano in a rainforest
a song lively and strong
yes, very lively
Wish you were here
to feel what I feel
A heart
happy and full of love
content but missing you so much
wishing you were by my side
wishing you were here

Artist Review
- Pepper Pepper
- Celebrated for his romantic botanicals and brooding landscapes, Pepper Pepper's images echo pure beauty. His images of people, places, and things are far from ordinary. Sometimes provocative, sometimes emotional, but always overflowing with drama, Pepper's work is shaped by his understanding of nature and human sensibilities. Some images are ethereal and others are grounded in reality, but all decipher the human condition. From his exquisite black and white photography to the ballet of colors in his abstracts, his images are identifiable yet completely imaginary. His style has matured into a synthesis of photorealism and impressionism. Images of a glowing fire inside a Romanesque church or the withered foliage of an aging prize rose are re-imagined through the kaleidoscopic layers in his work. Stone and water, petal and silk invite the viewer to explore the relationship between light and shadow, space and composition. Pepper Pepper's images are open doors that invite the viewer to pass through; a colorful and exciting journey always awaits. --- J.A.W. / Artist Review
