No one ever accused me of having any talent When it comes to drawing, I’m a joke You can stare all day at what I’ve painted And never decipher a single stroke I tried to draw today, in the spirit of liberty I wanted to draw a firecracker or maybe a roman candle But to me it looked like a butter churn laying on it's side with a vibrating handle |

You are so funny! *shaking my head* here-- my dear, wonderful friend, I'll just bet that if you add a little sparkle to the wick, and give it the appearance of being "on fire it would not only look great graphically, but better express the personality of the author! |

This was written today after I left work. I had to mark myself off until Monday as I'm taking Friday off. So I wrote "Back Mon. 7/8" then I tried to draw a firecracker. I was giggling over it and the receptionist wanted to know what was so funny. I told her I'd been trying to draw a firecracker but it only looked like a butter churn laying on it's side with a vibrating handle.... that phrase stuck and as a challenge to myself, I thought I'd try to use it in a poem!! |

May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Hey, at least it was a picture!? This was a very jovial write. I enjoyed. A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

A funny poem.... smile.... and isn't it that for most modern art...you first have to read the describtion to know what it is? I think you have a "modern" talent! Smile... Neeraja |
