Hustle and Bustle

This business of ART.
The hustle and bustle of it
can be a bit daunting.
A bit overwhelming.
And we chug along
and feel accomplishment
when it all works
and the crowds
seem to notice
and the work holds on.

We celebrate when
the world catches up 
with our wanderings
and our message is heard.

We find joy in that 
paint
that image
that shape
when it all
comes together
and hangs on together
and the work 
just seems to have its
own life.

We can find such wonder in 
all that we see
all that we do
and all that we accomplish.
And then start over 
the next day
and realize
that it matters.
It really matters.
