Description An artists soul


It lives within and looks without.
Through our eyes, Our hearts, our minds.
The driving force of creation.
We seek to make the intangible real.
To evoke thought,Β Β to kindle emotion.

With the strokes of brush, pen and color.
With the Careful crafting of words.
Seeking to bring forth in tangible form
The untouchable fire that burns within.

From that fire we forge our worlds.
With words and pictures we bid all to enter.
To share in joy and sorrow.
To ride with good and evil.
To live .
To die.
In worlds beyond their lives.

We are guardians of uncountable doorways.
Look at a picture, And enter.
Read the first sentence, And enter
Enter our world, And escape.

Driven by the fire within we toil at the forge of worlds.
Who knows maybe someday.
When this mortal coil falls away.
We might live in the worlds of our creation.

A nice read. It sums up the essence of an artist very well.

The untouchable fire that burns within.

From that fire we forge our worlds.

I like how those words indicate passion and drive at the same time^^

It's truth
without passion things are hollow
without drive why would we create?

and thank you for reading my friend

I think it's touching, but I hope I don't have to live my live after live... whatever in the world I created; my fantasy is terrible, and so are my drawings, hehe. I will read all your other poems as soon as I have time for sure!

This was my first submission here on DA.
As far as afterlife goes we won't know until we get there but.
maybe you should sketch in a brighter place just in case
and your drawings are much better than anything I can do
that's why I paint with words.

Well I see why you liked mine hehehe
This is an awesome poem!
I love it cuz you describe us artists kind of like guardians and teachers of art and words.

Love the wording of it all.

This was my first submission here on DA.
And that is truly how I see us.
As guardians, as teachers,
someone once said artists were the soul of humanity.
I believe that is true

I thank you.
I much prefer light to dark.
there is darkness aplenty in this world
of thought of soul and of deed.
and too little warmth and light
too dwell too long in the dark is to chance being consumed by it

Bright be your day. So says the wordsmith

I agree with you. We all should seek for light. It would make us better people.

That was my hope.
I wrote it quite a while ago but it seemed the perfect introduction.

Indeed. Make sure to check out the groups here on dA. You'll find plenty of like minded individuals. [link]

Helps gettting noticed too. Even though this site is set up for writers and artists, the writers sometimes get lost amongst the art.
