Creativity is Way of Life

Creativity has been way of life

since my early days —

and it continues to be.

I find joy, escapism, and confidence

in pursuing art and crafts.

Each nook and corner,

of the humble house

has my handmade décor —

often frugal, or repurposed.

Collage, button, pressed flower,

framed cloth, acrylic, watercolor

garden flowers, to photography.

I have explored cloth, wood, canvas

pebbles, clay, paper to glass.

They are slices of bygone time,

they make the house a home

with their warmth and uniqueness.

They impart solace to my heart,

and am glad to find an antidote,

against all pains and stressors,

in the pursuit of creativity.
