                 Artist
                            
                            
                                Artist
                                        Trust,
                                        you who
                                        are an artist
                                        that which flows
                                        from your mind
                                        and hand
                                        like the first
                                        brush of paint
                                        across the
                                        landscape
                                        of the canvas,
                                        that movement
                                        with inspiration
                                        flowing—
                                        keep it going
                                        like the
                                        Greatest
                                        Artist
                                        of All
                                        with the
                                        Song
                                        of
                                        Life.
                                        
                                        In response, and inspired by a poem within the book, THE GIFT, Poems by HAFIZ, The Great Sufi Master, Translations by Daniel Ladinsky.

                                        Certainly not to say I am a master or even an apprentice in any way of poetry or mystical insight—all is simply a creative endeavor to see what my own mind and heart may say of the poem, to try and put it into my own words, or simply to respond to the ideas set forth by HAFIZ, and translated by Daniel.
                                        
                                        (My apologies, this footnote will be repeated as I intend, at least presently, to continue in this mode for awhile. I am quite curious how AI will interpret things and how I may work and play, tweek words and such to perhaps change the direction AI is taking, in the end, hopefully to make a dream worthwhile sharing.)
