The artist that tries to capture the scene. <br /> The brilliant sunrise to the roll of the sea. <br /> The poet that tries to master the art, <br /> of writing the words locked deep in the heart. <br /> Both trying to express what God has created. <br /> Trying in vain sometimes feeling frustrated. <br /> To find the key that will unlock the door, <br /> and release the creativity that once flowed before. <br /> For it is a gift to pass to each generation. <br /> For someone to experience their creation. <br /> To share in their pictures and feel their thoughts. <br /> To touch someone's soul and live in their heart. <br /> For we are on this earth such a short period of time. <br /> Someone else will write a better rhyme, <br /> yet another will create a better masterpice. <br /> Forever striving to seize God's beauty for eternity.<br /><br />Cheryl L.
