It�s Good to Be an Artist

There are times when I think that no one understands.

There are times when I see what no one else saw.

There are times when I sing my song to deaf ears.

There are times when it all gets lonely.

But, never was there a time when I could stop.

When it finds the beat of people and places.

When it lifts to boundless elevations.

When its movement is spirited;

Rolling out the free-flow verses

Speaking with a powerful voice

when all forms are simple expressed.

And the only thing left to announce:

It's good to be an artist.

Dancing,

Singing,

Writing,

Drawing,

Playing,

Moving,

Enjoying,

Living in this life.


Author's Notes/Comments: 

Just something off the top of my head, while I was watching a friend draw what his mind saw.
