The mystic may attempt to read the signs
the sorcerer divine another spell
A scholar seek for truth between the lines
a gambler his opponent for the tell
An artist some original design
the conman for another scheme to sell
Historians the past for certain trends
the list goes on and on and never ends

The sculptor fashions works from wood or clay
the painter puts his palette to the test
Musicians strike a chord with which to play
the joker cracks a smile and makes his jest
If you proceed like nothing's in your way
one inner voice may rise above the rest
Perhaps with just the words you need to hear
as if someone had whispered in your ear

Doc Moose,

You do make it look easy - and I enjoy the flow that you create. I like the words too (grins) -- oh, and the poem too!

Alison,
Well now, I'd say that pretty well covers it,lol. I don't venture out of class very often ( I think they'd rather I stay away from the general populace )but it's nice to get out and see a few people from time to time.

You could have put yourself and your poetry writing in that poem, moose. It would have fit in very well.........nicely done.

brneyedgrly (shel),
Lol, not at all, I'm hardly one to stand on formality, "Doc", "Moose", "M", "Hey You", whichever you prefer.
Doc

Balladeer,
Thank you sir, I'll see you back in class.

Good job on the poem.  I tried doing that assignment, it's really hard! Very well put together.
