Painting
Painting is relaxing it's an expression from within,
From 11 natural colours is where we shall begin.
It can require patience but stresses melt away,
But slowly as we build the base a vision comes our way.
A steady hand and focus an image we start to see,
And as we visualise in our mind..its starts to set us free.
New colours are created in an idealistic scenery,
And slowly we begin to reveal our jewel..unique to you or me.
We sneak those precious minutes in from time we just don't get,
Yet all the time we apply more strokes a masterpiece is revealed,
And now once hidden in our thoughts..is no longer concealed.
You can choose from a hundred hobbies..but for me this is the best,
Painting is a skill that makes us stand out from the rest.
