PAINTING STUDIO Poem I FEEL FREE written by Stephen Craig Rowe
Introduction: The other night after work I was chatting with my friends Sassene and Jeremy. Sassy out of nowhere asked me to turn on my web cam and point it at my television. It was late and I had no idea of what she had in mind. So I turned on the web cam and pointed it at my television screen. Sassy and Jer had their cam off so that I could not see them. Sassy then typed, " Now turn on closed captioning so that Jer and I can watch your television." I had never turned on closed captioning and was having a moment or two with the remote for the TV while typing to Sassy in Messenger. Actually I was very frustrated with the remote and about to abort the little project when I pressed the correct key and Closed Captioning appeared on my TV screen. Sassy then typed, " Wow you got it, now surf the channels." I did so until she typed,
" Hey, stop! We like this show." I don't remember what show it was. Only that it was a late night comedy rerun. I was thinking this is a bit odd but rather nice. My dear deaf friends from California are watching my television in Peoria, Illinois. Pause for a bit.......Then Sassy typed, " Man, you are so easy! "
I could tell she was laughing and I smiled.
PAINTING STUDIO POEM
I FEEL FREE
written by
Stephen Craig Rowe
In the dreams of Angels
Liberty
Sings
Her wings
Ring around All.
A shimmering
Silent Grace
Awake
In Humanity.
Born in the Stars
and
Live
in Mind
and
Flesh.
Freedom
Is Liberty's Song
Strong
silent words
So Dear
For the
Future.
I
Feel
Free.
As ever be well. With love,

In all the social networks there are faces. Profile pictures. Look at me! Look at you! I am this and you are that. Each and every one so precious and unique. Life is a gift and the computer is an aid to improve life at the speed of light. Or so it goes.........It is up to the individual to choose how to use this magnificent machine to improve the betterment and contribute works that cause positive action. Of course fine art and poetry inspire others to go on and do good works. As does a helping hand or kind well placed word. One well placed word can change the world forever.
Do what you can do, and do it well. As ever be well.
