Beauty

We are surrounded by artists
big and small
left and right
we are artists
some mix colors on canvases
or mold clay with their fingers
and some work and craft
the art of bringing smiles to children's faces

some master the inner workings of our minds
and use the entire toolbox
to give education

others keep their eyes up
but stay with their pens pressed to paper
fixing syllables and vowel sounds
to create beauty
or scribble mathematical precision
to turn ideas into the stone reality
of our shelters

others fill more than empty stomachs
use all of Gods land given ingredients
and put their hearts into mixing
love into cooking
to fill us with beauty of taste and smell
and satisfaction

we are surrounded by a world of
artists and their creations

some use the their hands
to heal and to clean
provide us with life's necessities
with grace
and style

and remind us
that we are already a product of such beauty
and to remember
we too have a place in creating this art
