Share with us the STORY of you painting to give context to the work and what it means to you! This can be a poem or a few paragraphs
This course was magical for me. It explored the seven archetypes of the Mystic which I've represented in my painting. The following poem organically emerged while we were learning about the "Poet archetype". This was very significant for me as I NEVER write poetry. If felt like a gift from my Poetry Muse so that I could perfectly express my feelings for Musea and Intentional Creativity.

Land of the Red Thread

The Firebird dances,
Tango, Waltz, and Bachada.
Her wings a welcoming embrace
For all who long to join in.
But do so with a word of caution
For once you begin,
You are at risk for being swept away
To a land of merriment and play.
Where honey flavored rivers
Flow through valleys filled with Creative Sprites.
Where you will meet your Spirit Guides
Who will take you on adventures,
And parties that may last all night.
Where you will find gilded mirrors
That reflect exactly what you seek.
Where loving dance partners will
Accompany you to the table,
And invite you to claim your seat.
Where avid listeners will drink in your words,
And Wise teachers will
Make sure that you are heard.
And just when you think your journey
Has come to an end,
You will be greeted by your truest self
Who will say,
I’ve been waiting for you, let’s begin...
