Artistic

I had somehow assumed artists were their own special breed

To be an artist, a completely different set of qualities one would need

I was convinced my world could never intersect

With that of artists, my personality lacked an artistic aspect

I thought my manner of thinking was completely objective

I did not dabble in ideas creative or subjective

*

Not long ago, I stumbled upon, by serendipity

My own ignored creative ability

I could develop it further, I realized

It actually came as a pleasant surprise

*

Giving artistic expression to the chaotic thoughts in my mind

Has led me on the path of self-realization, I find

I can process complex emotions through art

I can better align my mind and my heart

*

While I do not have the audacity to call

Myself an artist, I can be artistic on a scale small

Each time I flex my muscles creative

Much needed nourishment to my soul I give..

  1. Oh my gosh–yes you are an artist! With both pen and paint! They make coloring books for adults with drawings like yours. You give nourishment to your soul and beauty to your readers.

    1. Don’t stop! That Christmas card you did was so beautiful. Between that and your poetry. I had the name for your book selected…something like Poetry for Pauses between Patients. We need to think of a good name because I so enjoy your posts. I have no talent for writing but you definitely do and there should be a way to get it out there–besides blogging.
