I know the Art of Love,
though, like art,
love is not always beautiful

Beauty...

I know the Art of Beauty
but, like art,
beauty is seen through the eyes of the soul

colors splashed on the canvas of life,
from the dullest grays to the most vivid brights

contrasting shades
of light and dark
Like Beauty,
And Love,
Life is like Art

Indeed it is. Every day is shaped and painted and added to the last only when it is done. The next must be shaped and painted all over again. An artist's work is never done. I'll admit though, that I have my share that I crumple up and toss over my shoulder.
