To all who see the higher cause of art and creativity...
.
by word in verse
with borrowed pen
on paper towel
the sound
the truth
so few could hear
till sung aloud
by one of love, delight
and happenstance
.
All events and circumstance give chance of service and advancement.

A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture
every day of his life. --Goethe
Rather:
Every day I hear the music and poetry and secrets whispered by all creation, because it is by listening that I recognize the subtle color, finer detail and broader picture of this life. The Sound emanates from every atom in the universe. And between atoms there is nothing but The Sound, because all matter is but a crystallization of It.
When you hear It, you know.
--Ardi .
