Small Time Art ~~ a Ditty


Reaching my Potential;  
Small time Art with Stickman style 

Stickman Art, reached my potential
Some are born with silver pallet
Beautiful hues in jars beside

That is a life I never knew
Born into share cropper family
A different life awaited me

With knees astride speckled pony
Friends were make believe, we would play
Corn fields and pastures nature's green

Yearning for those days departed
We are born with what we're to have
Make the best from there, Stickman Art

I enjoyed this so much. Stick art is the best I can do, too, Jim. But I had to smile at your balloon bouquet and cupcake grouping. Art is where we find it. Smiles.

I'm no artist either, Jim. You may have had humble beginnings but it sounds like you really did make straw into gold (not monetary but character).

I'll take the pony any day over hoards of "friends". :)

Very nice Jim! I grew up riding ponies and loved it.
