An Artist’s Burden

Paint the present
With past radiant
Preserve the glory
With pen or brush
Glorious, undefiled by the
Proliferation of technology
Of post-agrarian times….
Down the lane of memory
Revisit, recapture and
Resuscitate beauty
Live present by celebrating past
An anchor to salvage
The future of next generations
Who, unfamiliar with purity
Entrenched with organic paucity,
Go hollow
As we squander
The nature they should have garnered!
