Some people say he scribbles when they see that boy draw. But once I took a closer look; this is what I saw. I saw imagination in every shape he drew. Where loopy circles interlocked, he had colored blue. Stick figures walked across his page, but at a second glance, I noticed one or two of them had done a little dance! He’s very young to focus so, and this you need to know. Encourage him, for he might be our very next *Van Gogh. * Pronouncing Van Gogh's name the most common American way. I am used to it and it is easier to rhyme with something that way! Written 11/14/2015 for Oil Paintings 1-2-3 any Poem form Contest of Eve Roper

Love this, it is what so many children do and yet so many don't continue even with the encouragement. Love the flow and the rhythm.
