    Artists' Estate


    I draw from within,
    as outer walls grow less desirable each day.

    How warm the place, artists’ estate,
    exploring rooms within,
    to find one’s craft as gems amass,
    from beauty we hold in.

    Through doors at will, by want or thrill,
    unfolded wings to fly,
    toward visions each are blessed to reach,
    by will before they die.

    If I could house a gifted lot,
    I would with unmatched pride,
    unleash the thought, "succumb to naught,
    to crush creative cries."

    How warm the place, artists’ estate,
    exploring rooms within,
    to find one’s craft as gems amass,
    to leave might be a sin.

    One thing I've learned, as a (self-professed) artist, is that I've never seen a group of people that respect one another as much as artists do. It's a very satisfying circle to consider yourself a part of, and way cool company to be in, and it's super way cool to see it expressed so exceptionally.

    When I need an uplift I return to your poetry. You always fill this need. Your craft is indeed gems and not to write would be a sin. Sally

    If only this were the place I live...such a vast place with endless doors to thrust open in a zeal for creation and growth, expression and flight... MSV

    glad the thoughts triggered such a reaction. it really is one of my dreams too :D

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
