Feeding My Artistic Self

catbird seat sitting
licking up tasty morsels
I dance out my truth
loving the life actually

watching from afar
I plan my moves cautiously
understanding life
feeding my artistic side

painting my madness
wild strokes of a green pen
channeling my muse
I laugh at my crazy side

peeling uniqueness
gathering ancestral thoughts
I kick my glad feet
rapidly dance toward the sun
wearing glitter in my hair

This is an indulgence I treat my self to also - i love being surrounded by color i love the rainbow, i love when it rains and i see how happy the flowers are that smile at me, i love being by the sea and walking along the edge kicking spray and sand into the air - neve thought of glitter in my hair will try it. Great write Caren, Jennifer

You must try it, but be careful to avoid your eyes.
