dance of dreams
Dreams without goals, are just dreams; and ultimately they just fuel disappointment. On the road to achieving our dreams, you must apply discipline, but more importantly, consistency. Because without commitment you’ll never start, but without consistency you’ll never finish. -Denzel Washington
My eyes are on the canvas
My mind naps in the dark
I feel my heart’s own rhythm
I’m moved to make my mark
My tool points to the surface
My brain is out to lunch
My soul directs my brush strokes
Relying on a hunch
My brush is lush and ready
My thoughts have gone on leave
My gut reports for duty
To craft beyond belief
-Therese Lydia Joseph
