30. The Artist Within
By Synthia Wesley- 2011
I am a Creator I am an artist
Creating art each day A Creator each day
Finding different ways to In all that I do
express myself In all that I say
Without a Word to say
That artist within
In light comes dark Who hides alone
Shadowing my brush Who stands on her feet
To design what I please All on her own
Pleasantly, no rush
In the silence a voice
I’m a loner, a poet So softly descends,
A fashionista much more Bringing forth the artist
From music to stories The artist within
Nothing I do ever bores
I am Heaven Synt
Surrounded by angels Standing out in a crowd.
Guiding my feet Silently making my debut
To that place within Leaving a trail LOUD
Where I shall meet
