My Sketchbook

Ideas flow through my pencil onto the page
Pages and pages of mysterious figures
Different shapes, figures, swirling into one
Unfolding a story through pictures

My imagination, like a wild animal
Leaps out of its cage
Hungry to invent and limn
To scamper across the page

Somewhere I can escape to
Away from the hate-filled world
A world of happiness and joy
And where new ideas swirl...
