A Poet To An Artist
A poet can see the words, hanging in his mind
He applies them like a kid, picking grapes from a vine
An artist will then make use of them to construct a bigger leap
He will flock every words like a shepherd to his sheep’s
A poet will find a way to bring life, into the story
Just like King David, with his faith, re-defining his glory
An artist will paint his masterpiece, reasonably truthful to his words
In the same way a conductor from a train would say, “All aboard”
A poet will dig even deeper, to provide you with a little bit more wit
He would give you everything he has, up to whatever life permit
An artist will re-invent new colors, you may yet never have even seen
As if taking you to all of the same places, you thought, you’ve never been
A poet can take you closer to that inner voice in you
All he needs is one moment, to make all your dreams come true
An artist will go as far as to guide you, to that sacred journey inside
Like how Jesus saved us from sin, the moment He was crucified
