There's an artist in all of us
waiting to emerge--
longing to purge
and express every urge...
But society often stifles our creativity.
Those schoolhouse rows impairing productivity--

But then you connect with me.

Suddenly,
I feel free--
free to be whatever I want to be--
free to express the real me--

What was once an insurmountable weight melts away,
becoming airborne with a mere flicker of a breeze.
With just a hint of a wheeze,
I arise,
soak in the wonder of the earth and skies,
find my canvas and with the widest of eyes,
exact my surprise,
and delight in what now there lies.

With gratitude, I sit back to admire my creation
and finally grasp that my adulation
is the most important exultaion.
