Artsy Endeavors

Paint and pencils I had
Paper and tries aplenty
One line, two lines
Out of proportion
Start over


Never had the gift to
Draw a pretty picture
But I did have will
And that
Made all the difference

Thanks you guys!
Mikha, nothing happened to it I just changed the name :D. The other one was too long for my taste.

It does make a difference - and this poem is beautiful as well as insightful.

Like a wonderful blend of Robert Frost's poem and Arnold Lobel's Frog and Toad story about willpower. I know blogger and wordpress don't always cooperate, so I wanted to let you know I appreciated your comment on my Enigma poem and welcome you to drop me a link if you do end up writing something somehow semi-related :)

Quite inspirational Laura! You speak to my creative senses and it surely remains true to all, if it be our passion, will definitively always speak to us. Great last line.
