While we talked,
My friend created a sunset
With oil sticks
At my kitchen table,
Using blue, white, yellow,
And a hint of red.
Have I watched an artist at work?
The courage to live in the mess,
The patience to persevere,
The faith that what will come to be
May not be precisely what was expected,
But will still be beautiful and new.
I lack all skill in the visual arts.
But I can hope for artistry in life.
