IGWRT's Sunday-Mini Challenge "The Artist"

The Artist

Drifting in and out of fairytales

inspiration nuzzles its way 

from Disney to anime,

as with labor pains

upon my fingertips

I stitch and sew,
nip and tuck,

become Creator of my muse.

 The creative process always fascinates me.  I found the conceptual sketches to be as exciting if not more so than the soft sculpted dolls.  I was truly amazed how many of these high school students were able to successfully carry out their initial idea.

This is for Imaginary Garden with Real Toads "dolls".  This is my third poem for the prompt as I couldn't choose just one doll! :)
