Picture Frames

Picture frames that enclose the art
make the art stand out.
If the frame is not just right
better to do without.

For the artist had in their mind
what the frame should be.
But the framer who made the frame
did not know what the art would be.

So acquiring the knack of pairing them
is a talent all its own.
The picture itself cannot speak out
but it has always known
what its frame should be.
