My Love For Art
Etchings of silhouettes on an easel made of wood,
ebony charcoal releases a spiritual imagination-
Abstract or contemporary pastels on a blank canvas-
I’ve found that my artisan abilities are my greatest creation.
Oils creating a fine landscape of grandpa’s old rocking chair,
my first painted picture was a still framed bowl of fruit-
Sketch pads filled with passionate memories I’ve drawn,
for since a young girl I have been talented and astute.
The arts have always been a mystery to my soul,
every blank page a new way to express my intimate feelings-
I’ve traveled to Tuscany and seen the mountains of Colorado,
and each experience is a masterpiece filled with much healing.
I have been asked by a poet what is my greatest practiced passion,
yes, of course writing verses is definitely on the top of my chart-
And even though my heart releases gentleness as I write my rhymes,
my absolute greatest passion is the gift I hold for my lovely art.
