The Art of Life

Does art reflect life, or is it the other way around? This piece kind of sounds like it could be a companion to my 'Sands of Time'... it's got the same style...

The Art of Life

Dip a paintbrush in your blood

Create a work of art

Overflow a fountain pen

With musings of the heart

Sing a song composed of tears

A haunting melody

Construct a bridge of smiles

Across emotion's sea

A sculpture made of laughter

A quilt stitched out of fears

A garden sewn with mem'ries

Collected through the years

Look into a fount of hopes

That cascades into dreams

And see with satisfaction

That life ain't what it seems

See that life is merely art

Reflected animate

And see we needs emotions

To find ourselves in it
