Haiku Friday: Art?
What is art?
My dad has had various theories about that over the years, so I have given it some thought. My favorite definition was found in a Guindon cartoon, which showed a guy with a bad clown painting. The painter says "It's art. I used art supplies."
Let's haiku on that this week, or art in general if you prefer.
Here, I will go first:
Just some junk I found
In a clearing by the house
In just the right light….
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 formula for syllables, and have some fun!

As children, we all drew,
Once, we were all great artists
Then something happened.
Someone said something:
A teacher, parent or friend
Stung, we quit drawing
Perhaps great artists
Are those who were never told,
"That's not very good."
Or perhaps, artists
Are those who heard those words and
Kept drawing anyway.
