A Poem for World Community Arts Day 2008

My Art
Is Your Art
Is Our Art
In Whole
Not In Part
It’s Drawn From The Mind
It’s Drawn From The Heart
It’s Imagination
It’s Music
It’s Art
With A Brush
With A String
With A Hand
With A Dart
It’s Clear
It’s Here
It’s Far
It’s Art
It’s Love For The World
It’s The Jam On A Tart
With Others
By Yourself
You’re Creating Anew
What’s Gone Before
What’s In Front Of You
Relieving The Tensions
Entering New Dimensions
Of Pandora’s Hope
New Scents On A Soap
It’s Tactile
And A Factfile
It’s Yours
It’s Ours
Created To Share
With A Community To Care
Because
My Art
Is Your Art
Is Our Art.
