Tangled Art & Poetry

I have found a new love of Zentangle and still continue my love of poetry as well. So I thought, why not mix the two together and create a blog?

If you love reading my poems and also have a love for Zentangle or Zendoodle, then you can visit one of my newest blogs:

http://tangledartandpoetry.blogspot.com/

It will feature some of my best poems, and a tangle of the day. I will show off some of my latest Zentangle creations. Don't know what a Zentangle is? Let's just call it a fancy way to doodle!- Not only does it look fancy, but it's also very relaxing. It's a variety of doodles and designs that you don't really think about, but in the end, it all seems to work out. Try putting "Zentangle" into Google and see what I am talking about.... You just might get hooked like I did!

So when you have time, stop by my new blog: Tangled Art & Poetry. 

Poem: The Gift of Life

Life will kick you down,
but then you kick it right back.

Sometimes you felt that it wasn't worth all of the pain,
But there is so much more in life worth to gain.

Don't let life get you down,
God didn't create us to wear a frown.

Why so serious?
Laugh!
God gave us the gift of joyous laughter.
That is definitely one reason to smile.

Sometimes, you have to take a chance.
Roll the dice... and pass go!

Don't get stuck in the mud,
just take off your shoes, and keep on going.
That's why God gave you feet!

It's time to smile, laugh and pick up the pace.
Look up to the sun, and let the light shine on your face.
Bask in God's glorious warmth.

And always remember the simple things...
Without all of those small reminders, life would just be too difficult.

You only live once in this life-time.
Make it worth your while,

Life is the one gift that you can never take back.
