In the Artist's Hand
In the Artist's Hand I hold
 The key to fiction places
 I can make anything come alive
 Worlds of unknown spaces
 
 I have the talent to create
 To improve, of take away
 With a style all my own
 It's something new everyday
 
 Surrounded by my colors
 From paint to pastel
 I smudge, smear, and shade
 To make it all blend so well
 
 My passion grows, thoughts overwhelm
 The urge burns like fire
 To make the visions I see real
 That's my hearts one desire
 
 I have self-confidence
 Not one ounce of doubt
 Behold the artist within
 That's floating upward and out
 
 The hand I use is firm
 I have absolute control
 What a gift to so create
 What's burning in my soul!
 
 My passion is very strong
 And it won't have ever died
 How I enjoy expressing on paper
 All that I have inside!
 
 It expresses every feeling
 And captures every thought
 There are infinite ideas
 Every mood is caught
 
 I draw what I visualize
 My imagination paused
 Filling in with such speed
 Before the idea's lost
 
 The key to fiction places
 Leads to the door of a make-believe hand
 And this key is held
 In the Artist's Hand
