To paint Requires the stroke,
Of a dark-tinted brush,
For the completion of a masterpiece
To compose requires the touch,
Of a discordant note,
For the rendition of a melody
To narrate requires the voice,
Of an obvious villain,
For the context of a tale
To dance requires the landing,
Of a heavy foot upon the floor,
For the movement of a piece
To act requires the pain,
Of a guilt-stricken character,
For the drama of the play
To learn requires the mistake,
Of a well-meaning student
For the betterment of a life
-Poem Fanatic
