Mike Hauser Poet Free verse

The Art of Living

Some have a hard time in drawing
From the experience that life has given
Always in need of help whether bold or pastel
In interpreting the art of living

Being a sign of the times in grand design
Trying to hang the picture perfect life
As they're craving their niche or taking brush strokes to it
A happy medium they have yet to find

Not patient enough most just give up
At the opening of their life's museum
With empty frame that bares only a name 
In interpreting the art of living

Cheryl Hoffman December 3, 2016 at 5:16 PM Very true Mike; a lot of us tend to get discouraged too easily and give up! Well done piece!:)

Heidi Sands December 3, 2016 at 4:08 PM So true, Mike! Well written. I can also relate to this, being a painter. Thanks for sharing :)
