As a teen one of my best friends, was a visual artist. We would spend hours together discussing the meaning of life. I would write poems and watch her paint or sketch; envious of the pictures she could so easily create. I was really no good at it. As hard as I tried no one could ever figure out what it was that had been in my head from anything I ever tried to draw. As time went on and I continued to write I found I could create pictures with my words. My poems began to take on the form of a drawing. Today I would like to sketch some pictures for you. Some are from my life, some from other people's whom I have observed and some a combination of the two. But being the author I don't have to tell which they are. I can simply let you sit back and create your own pictures through these words. Email bonnienish@hotmail.com
