The Artist

His biggest achievement to many in life may seem small
When he has nothing to say he says nothing at all
At the local pub on a Saturday evening where noise does abound
He sits and drinks his beer without uttering a sound
He does not take part in sport or football with the local club play
And many young locals his age say he is strange in his way
Those who are different to them they do not understand
The flames of suspicion by difference can be fanned
As a young emerging artist he is making his mark
At the weekend he is often seen sketching at the leisure park
In his early twenties close to his physical prime
With his casual girlfriend he sometimes spends leisure time
Quietly spoken he has never played a game of football
When he has nothing to say he says nothing at all.
