Rock of Ages

Rock of Ages
20" x 16"
Oil on Linen
$3,100

ROCK OF AGES
by Juan Romagosa

Even the rocks cry out
Innocent love.
Eternally now
Timeless boulders ageless grow.

Stone temple grove
first kiss of love
Neptune's cove
doth childhood foster.

Infant explorers nurture
nature's secret treasure;
God's pure pleasure.

AIRBORNE LOVE


AIRBORNE LOVE
18" x 24"
Oil on Canvas

"Airborne Love"
by Juan Romagosa

Sever the ties
binding you down
gravity's pull Love defies

Jump with glee
true Love cries
feeling free
joyfully silently dancing

Airborne Love defines
reaching for infinite skies
unlocking our heart's confines
personal limits transcending.

BUCKAROO


BUCKAROO
16" X 20"
Oil on Canvas

Buckaroo is derived from the Spanish word Vaquero, meaning Cowboy. 
A child plays make belief and dares
the forces at large.  Toreador.  Ole'! Lasso in hand, the little-boy chases
 a snake under the protective watch of a bull-shaped tree;
angel above, dreams below.

 "Buckaroo"
by Juan Romagosa

Ponder your challenge
innocent child
paso doble balanced
dream of the wild.

Sombrero crowned boy
enacting the king
pretend young cowboy
do your thing.

Mariachi clad vaquero
stalking illusion
acting regal buckaroo
under the sun.

Aspiring to snatch
in magical play
most difficult catch
illusory prey.

Watchfully covered
by bovine gaze
protected and sheltered
by arboreal grace

Bullfighter charro
born to rope
Toreador lasso
slithering hope.

HER SECRET


HER SECRET
36" x 24" 
Oil on Canvas

Surrealist beach scene depicts a woman's coming awareness.  As she views an image in the sand, children witness the vision and transformation in Varadero - Playa Azul, a Cuban beach.


"Her Secret"
by Juan Romagosa

Childhood I enjoyed
on the beach warmly
as time went by tenderly
under the golden sun hotly
maturing.

One day to my innocent face
in the burning sand
a mask of thick hair and smiling aspect
 attached.

Years passed.
Borrowed habits proved
comfortable -
to the found mask
they stuck.

Countenance closed
hot sun encroached.

From afar a warm message of love did arrive.
Blood thus far peacefully coursing
To a sudden boil did come.

Great emotion unleashed
- revelation unmasking
soul saved, by love released.

Shining:
Resplendent love;
Transcendent - adored.
