The Artist

The Artist

The artist smiles, as sunlight plays across the vista of her mind,
Chalk and paint rubbing creative shoulders like old friends.
Leaning forward now, she falls into emotive colour blends,
Inspiration finding her, where others would be blind.

Creation prances swirling strokes, like woodland deer,
Crimson blends with snowflake just beneath the skies.
Smoky liquid blue stands still reflected in the artist’s eyes,
Her dream unfurling cross the page so clear.

Realising dreams is how the artist lives her days,
She dares to risk the torture of the lonely soul.
Breathing life into the moment, making whole,
Forging natures hues through dreamscape velvet haze.
