OWNER OF MY SOUL
TRUTH SPEAKER
MINER WHO DIGS DEEP
SAILOR OF MANY SEAS
EXPLORER OF DISTANT LANDS
SINGER OF SONGS
CHIEF COLOR MIXER
CHIEF POT WASHER
PROBLEM SOLVER
LEADER OF NONE
VISIONARY
You ask exactly what I do
I claim my space as my own
I tell the truth
I finding solutions
I look for alternatives
I sail to far away shores
I explore distant lands
I follow the path before me
I often take a path less traveled
I sing songs of love
I mix colors
I seek solutions
I wash paint pots
I work alone
I focus my eyes on the horizon
I can see the past and future
I am an woman
I am a painter grown old
I dream of you

I work alone...as do I when I write, or clean house, or gaze at the horizkn. I thing being a loner makes for a great poet or painter or, a painter poet.
Lord, my tablet is not yet awake...I meant horizon and I think....
this was great...I can relate so well with this poem
I really love the effect of a good list, Annell, and here the last few lines are most resonant.
I love the truth of the list of descriptions, as well as the poem which gives us such a full glimpse of the artist at work.
A woman of many talents, Annell. Several things come to mind here. I feel that most if not all is you. My adventures could fit your list fairly well also, but definitely singing. I used to sing in a church choir and in a men's chorus. But when we moved to N.H. the director wanted us to audition. I missed the cut and have never sung in organized singing since.

Lovely poem!
Leader of none.... perfect as long as there is no one leading you.
