An Apprentice Artist's Dilemma
Stillness of the night,
Can't get the sketching right.
Trying to draw a diva,
So close and yet so far.
An apprentice artist's dilemma.
Tomorrow a new day come,
I will not remain glum.
I've got the eyes down pat,
The nose differs a tad.
The face needs more work.
That's definitely the irk.
This last time, a charm!
Pencils sharpened,
Kept my calm.
Grid was lengthen,
Now it's done!
Though not an exact science,
I think I've got the lines.
I know that I have tried
and now, I'm satisfied.
