Talent’s a gift
Like unto a seed
To be nurtured nourished and tended
If left as a weed
It will yet fill its need
To spread itself as it’s intended
A burstable burden bourn to be used
Like a chisel or trowel or a pen
To sculptor painter maestro or muse
Guiding a man in his action reaction
His quest of perfection
A pointed direction
Creative reflections
Unfurled
