Description
"The ScareCrow - by Khalil Gibran"
Once I said to a scarecrow, "You must be tired of standing in this lonely field."
And he said, "The joy of scaring is a deep and lasting one, and I never tire of it."
Said I, after a minute of thought, "It is true; for I too have known that joy."
Said he, "Only those who are stuffed with straw can know it."
Then I left him, not knowing whether he had complimented or belittled me.
A year passed, during which the scarecrow turned a philosopher.
And when I passed by him again I saw two crows building a nest under his hat."
Another image inspired by one of my favorite writers...a man who not only inspired me to do some art but to think, and think again.. and again.. a great deal of who I am now was carved while traveling through those pages, and I still have a long way to go until crows build nests under my hat.
Thank you all for viewing!!!
