JWG's Tomorrow Today — Thinking of Art (a poem)

Wherein JWG would like to have the drive to be a true Artist.

Thinking of Art

Folk Art is the inspiration
To go home and begin a craft
That when finished makes you happy.
Even if you don’t share the work,
The accomplishment is a treat.

One’s efforts were pooh-poohed
By those who claimed that “Art”
Had to have refinement.
Many a hope was dashed
And never recovered.

Thinking of Art,
And not doing,
Is a pity.
A true Artist
Will have the drive.

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

With the budget "we" just passed? That can't be!

"Why are Smithtown teachers continuing to pay for school supplies out of their ownRead More pocket?" Since when? Ever see the big list of supplies kids get in their folders at the end of the year for them to bring in next year? I think you're talking about the wrong school district.
