STUDIO LIFE
A tiny voice whispers
Look around in surprise
It is my conscience
You see
The one who
Watches out for me
Together we try to
Stay out of the ditch
Make no mistake
It is easy to get off the path
Leave no trace
Of your whereabouts
Lost in your work
In the studio
Friends will want you to
Come out to play
They will
Leave a note
And when you see them
You will explain
You are not sick
Only dedicated
Seconds past uninterrupted
Then you realize
A lifetime has passed
No rest taken
And like the scientist
In the lab
You attempt to translate
The discoveries made
Detect where you have been
All your life
PROMPT:conscience, together, mistake, leave, note, sick
friends, second, rest, translate, lab, detect
smiles…def easy to get caught up in the art and miss that which should be inspiring it…important to get out and find it anew, that is for sure…
thanks for popping in today annell…i hope you have a wonderful sunday
I agree with Brian. I too could get caught up in writing or other craft arts…I guess that’s why my dust bunnies multiply freely.
Thank you for your visit. – That last line, I grew up with it. ‘First time guest, second time family.”
Spoken like an artist, Annell.
Annell, I always love your poems on your dedication to art.

I, too, so admire your dedication, Annell. You inspire! You are true to your art.
This reminds me of Joseph Campbell’s “follow your bliss.” I heard that phrase over thirty years ago and still hold it close and find it often in your words. Here is to bliss, especially when you share it.

Annell, another exceptional work. Thanks for bringing us into your world.
Keep them coming, Annell. Alone time is often productive time for me, too. To piggy back on Walt’s comment, thanks for sharing your world with us.
Beautifully crafted annell! Can evoke a lot of questions and that makes it all the more interesting! Nicely!
