What is...

What is...
Merriment molded from mayhem
Order ordained from chaos
Life lifted from death
Happiness helped out from sadness

What is...
Boldness beckoned from bashful
Courage coaxed from fear
Seeing sifted from sight
Understanding ushered from perceiving

What is...
Kindness kindled from hate
Feeling fondled from apathy
Friendship forged from a stranger
Questioning quilted from exposure

What is...
Art?

-- Scott Miller
