Art For The Songbird

Art For The Songbird

Many thanks,
To the musicians I hear all through the day,
For they lead me to a serine place,
Of effortless effort-
Floating in your wave.

Many thanks,
To the writers who open those gates,
Of personal vision,
For they bring a wider sense of color,
To my painted lines.

What ease the arts bring,
For they make every songbird,
Happy to sing,
Happy to sing,
The song of life.

There's nothing sadder than a bird without song, a heart without joy. I love the gratitude expressed and the happiness it brings. Well penned.

and those songs....both in poetry and music or the combination of both is what inspires us to write...while we write and listen, and listen, and listen.
"effortless effort" that is how it is when it's best.
nice write, Mark.
