Dipping my brush

Drinking from this cup, wider,
seeing the bounty, the creation,
visions of the artists, the creators,
sculptures, images, moments,
captured from the ether, their imagination…
 
Creating memory, drawing each of us in,
gathering senses, colors, textures,
sparking creation, delving, exploring,
digging deeper, emoting perspective,
Art, a drink, a taste, a tease…
 
Dipping my brush in a wider palette,
different media, far more than color,
a buffet, a smorgasbord, a banquet, a feast,
sampling creation, vision, imagination,
visual textures, a veritable bas-relief…
 
A splash of ceramics, a dab of sound,
transcendent photographs, glass hanging down,
shades, colors, images real, imagined,
painting in wood, in fabric, in silence,
brushstrokes of emotion, of eternal light…
