Mind of a creative

Melcornia Tapa 2003 (Carltonville)

A blank canvas
A mind full of colour
Curiosity wants answers
Before inspiration gets duller
Pencil to paper
Chalk or brush
Contrast the saviour
Purple to blush
A rush of ideas
A slow process
Gathering all the years
Of dedication and focus
The canvas reflects you
You are an artwork

                                       ~Melcornia
