EXAMINATION

life is like a painting

if examined near to eye

you'll see the swirling textures

where the paint was left to dry
.

but when you're standing further

all those cracks just fade away

you only see the beauty

of the artist's brush at play
.

life is like a painting

when those swirling colors spin

and all becomes confusing

just step back to take it in
.

life is quite like dancing

and if grace we hope to earn

we have to know the movements

and with patience, we will learn
.

when one begins a dance step

it is wise to start off slow

to find out what the hands must do

and where the feet must go
.

life is quite like dancing

if the tempo gets too quick

and all becomes confusing

then some slowing does the trick
