Life is Full of Potential


The first stroke of the brush and im estatic an idea is born continuous marks commence and im hoping to create something worth talking about potential is key and this has potential with each line i create, i can see the ideal image making careful decisions, i think flawless And then the worst occurs a smudge is on my paper, then the wrong color, half of the painting turns into something dreadful i look at it as abominable, seize the day i lay paint on this paper But potential is key and this has potential Quit is imaginative, its the lochness swimming through unscatheful seas paper paid by hours and days and now to be discard No, No, No, it will not, it cannot be destroyed Potential is key and this still has potential i change things until its enticing to eat paper Amazing not what was intended but what was created, intensity that the sun could not handle, a fork and knive should be awarded because this is not finger food Mistakes are made but throwing away what could be masterpiece should never be thought because potential is key and just like a painting, life is full of it
