The Artist
The passion grows, emotions swell,
Such desire must release!
Reach for palette. Where is my
brush?
I feel my strength increase!
The vision forms, I see it now.
Brush captures it with speed!
I can't resist, the urge is strong.
The paint fulfils a need!
Stroke by stroke my brush displays
The beauty I perceive.
I love the way it captures all
The thoughts that I conceive!
Finished now I feel released!
My passion turns to pride.
What a gift to so create
All that I have inside!
