As the end of winter chilled our studios, one way to keep the warmth of creativity in our lives has been to turn to the artistry of the kitchen where even a humble sandwich can become a momentary sculpture, where the eyes we perceive in our onions can entertain us with fun faces, and we learn something. To feed ourselves and those we care for, we set aside time, a few brief hours everyday. In that time we set aside all other distractions and we focus on the art before us. As I repeated this process over and over in recent months, It reminded me that it is a process that each of us as creatives, artists, writers, designers, or crafters should take... within each of our own areas of creative passion and artistic comunication, also on a daily basis. And certainly, :) Food art should be one of those expressions! !

Once upon a time, Along time ago A truck broke down, It belonged to a boy Who recieved it with joy, Given by a grampa Who loved wooden things, But time and use, Hard play everyday Removed the wheels And the truck couldn't go, On to a shelf up high A box became it's new home, The years went by and by, But the boy moved far away, A mother waited long, The truck waited too, The boy became the man, Life brought the man a boy, And grama too, She wondered what to do, The truck came off the shelf, But it could not roll, And it could not play, With great grampa gone, And Santa far away A plan must be made, There was a guy, Maybe just the guy, In a hat like Frosty Who had a white beard to boot, He worked in shop full of magic, Full of curiosities and things, Grama began to believe, The truck could roll again So off to a room of machines and dreams, The little truck went, Again the truck waited, But this time in sight As big metal things came alive in the night, Some whirled, some shook Some made lots of dust, In hands of the man in the hat, When the dust settled, or was thoroughly sucked, Beside the little truck there then sat, A new set of wheels just like that, With a couple of taps, A wee bit of glue, The truck soon found out He could roll, Just as good as When he was new, Off to new adventurers he went, To a land far away, In flying machine in the sky, To celebrate again, With is old friend, And the little new boy, The coming of the Christmas Holiday. Merry Christmas!

The world is round It is big Yet it is small The world is round We fly it quickly Yet we walk it slowly The world is round We float above it Yet we float on it The world is round It spins in circles Yet we travel in cycles The world is round It changes continually Yet we resist change The world is round It shifts and shakes Yet we shiver and quake The world is round Each turn is a day Yet only a moment in eternity The world is round.

Are they star's in the evening sky Are they planet's drifting through space Are they unknown world's yet to explore Are they drones let loose in the darkness of the night Are they robots that hover in the shadows Are they my army of miniature Death Stars ready to invade the universe ?

Everyone thinks that a poem has to be long and use big words, but that’s not true. Poetry is all about meaning, not about it’s length or complexity. Most of the time poets are shot down because of their simplicity and sometimes the poems they make are beautiful and full of meaning. This blog is for people like us. The “Simple Poets”. If you have a beautiful and simple poem, tag it with #simplepoet or #simplepoem and I will repost it. My goal is to help all the simple poets out there and give them the fame they deserve!!!
