I don't know what category again, perhaps ART rather than entertainment...?


Poem Artwork

SKETCHED…


 


Never before did sketch,


Have more than my share did stretch,


Used in the past an etch a sketch,


Might have been easier to draw a ketch…


 


This boat always has been a desire,


When I do see it at sea my heart feels fire,


Just the thought of ownership does take me higher,


Someday though, in this life or next, I will, this boat, acquire…


 


Sketching for me has never been easy,


Even now I worry it is not so good, it makes me queasy,


You may be one of the very few that gets to see me draw,


The first time in my life I have posted a picture,


I guess before we can walk, we must start to crawl…

My god, Ed, you drew this??? As one who struggles with stick men, I'm hugely impressed! You mustn't take your ever-present, self-effacing attitude now... this is really good! Sidebar: it's interesting how the entire picture is "sketchy" EXCEPT the American flag, which is bold and clear... like a focal point. Intentional? No matter, it's very interesting.

I'm with you... to have a vessel to go on the water such as this one would be a dream come true. Sigh... (take me too!!!) katy xox.

Ed, I must say both the poetry and picture compliment each other very well, my friend. If this is the first one, I look forward to seeing many more from your talented quill. You’ve done a fine job. Next thing you know you’ll be our next “Ed The Sketchman Poet!” Peace thru drawing and writing! Take care and be well.
