MY ARTIST'S HEART: POEM BY ROSE



MY ARTIST'S HEART
 
 
I need the gentler moments,
No crisis every day,
To grow and be creative,
And find my artists' way.
 
Van Gogh could use his anguish
To fuel his passions' fire.
But me, I need tranquillity
To find my heart's desire.
 
Da Vinci found his calling.
Picasso and Rembrandt, too.
But I struggle daily to find my place,
Scared to know, afraid to do.
 
Art is a mirror of yourself,
The soul a door, the heart a key.
Exposure means taking a risk...
What if it's NOT for me?!
 
I need the peaceful moments
To calm my fears and start.
It's all inside, each stroke, each line,
I'm an artist in my heart.
