I love art
And don’t know why
Blame it on my youth
I would wake up early
I had newspapers to deliver
They were at Ron’s place
Had to get them at 5 AM
A blackbird wuild call to me
It was a lament for Linis
He had died in an accident
Everyone had loved him
He helped anyone wo needed it
He loved everyone and put them first
Never thinking of just himself
Always alert and never lucid
When I finished my paper route
I walked by closed shops
Except the bakery was open
Chocolate chip cookie time
Then the art gallery windows
Taking in all the wonder
Placed so carefully on the canvas
Different people and different styles
That must be my answer
On why I love art
It taught me to never copy
But be original at all costs
And always do my best
