Everything Is An Art

EVERYTHING IS AN ART Everything is an art - even the mowing of the lawn When in the grass pretty patterns you have drawn Even the making of the wine is an art all in its own Arranging the flower vase you are the best known There is art to eating spaghetti just ask the Italians Even an art how best to show off their - medallions An art to putting on the slap and an art to the lippy How to wear that scarf when the weather is so nippy There’s an art to everything and everything is an art There's those who show it others with it not depart The secret of how to be the best choosing a la carte The combination of food show others you are smart There’s an art to poetry & with it how to write it all Me just having fun of the art & having myself a ball Football is an art on just how to make that ball ride If you have the art then your ball will never go wide Of ever missing the goal and it going into the crowd The art of acceptance - when your goal is disallowed Life is art and knowing how to love it- surely shows Take it from someone who has the art - thus knows This poem could be endless - as I explain all the arts But I am quite busy with the art of how one departs Indiana Shaw . . . ; )
