Blind Art by Nigel

Blind Art

As an artist viewing a blank canvass
I see not an empty page
Just poems still unwritten
Begging to be made.
With lyrical colour I paint a scene
Each a vocal work of art
And ‘though we’re a band of brothers
Our independence sets us apart.
The lyrics I see are my own
As is my choice to show you
Another may show a different scene
But each is painted true.
How we obtain inspiration
None of us can clearly say
Perhaps we just look at life
In a slightly different way.
So if you see a picture
But can’t identify the view
Don’t condemn it with slander
It just wasn’t meant for you!

POETIC VERSE by Nigel

The art of poetic verse
is to show the world you care
to reach out and touch the lonely
and show there's someone there,
To find a perfect beauty
and help the blind to see,
To create a peacefull environment
thats safe for you and me.
The art of poetic verse
is to touch a primal chord,
To educate the empty
so they can spread the word.
So if you have a message
you don't know how to tell,
Try the art of poetic verse
the lyrically enlightening spell!
