I Hope You Can Imagine

By Freya Peterson

I love art and I hope everyone can draw, and draw from their heart. 

 

What you might see is a pencil or paper

But art is a thing not out of the blue

It is something not even a maker could choose

It’s a sky

An ocean 

Or even a shoe

It is a beautiful mirror looking at you

Whatever you do

Try to make anew

Art is a gift or a talent

Just get out your pallet

And draw

Not a scribble or anything boring

Do some exploring and find what’s adoring 

And draw

But don’t just draw a tree

Draw a bee by the tree

Don’t just draw a log

Draw a frog on the log

Imagine what you can do with your hands

Or whatever you need

Drawing is a good deed

No matter how good you are

Just be a star

And draw

Draw the earth 

Draw a house

I don’t even care if you draw your pet mouse

Use what you’ve got

And show them on the spot

That you have an aptitude

And draw

Draw something unexplainable

Something unpredictable

Something out of the imaginary

Maybe a fairy

Or something hairy

Draw what’s uncommon

Maybe some Ramen

Let the people be surprised 

And always be advised

Make your drawing special 

Make it original

And draw

Not gnaw

Draw
