The below poem was published in "New Era" magazine in February 2001. I wrote it when I was a teenager. To this date, when I watch the colors fade from the sky, observe clouds clinging to the tops of our local mountains, and walk through fallen leaves, I think about God's artistry. I think about how I could recreate that piece in another medium, whether photography, drawing, painting, a three-dimensional craft, or in words. There are so many opportunity to create beauty and give back to this beautiful world.
Sunset by Esther Yu
God painted me a sky today.
He used blues, whites, reds, and greens.
Yesterday He used purples too.
I guess
God is an artist
who likes to experiment with perfection.
