Art is long and permanent
Life is short and transient.
Seattle ,the land of scenic beauty,
A patron of art to its bounty.
Fair ,a platform for an artist
To exhibit talent to the fullest.
Age cannot dither them
From their insight
As it was their pursuit
To bring out the best.
They strive to focus on novelty
As compelled to surprise lovers of art.
Glass-blown art pieces
To the finest shapes
Explored from scientific techinques,
Draw your attention from a distance.
Crystalline-glazed porcelin in
Different forms like decorative lights
Illumined glass panels,vases,shells
sparkle on one side,
While hand- built porcelin pottery
In myriad shapes
Startle on other side.
Black and white carved stoneware
Adore the stall
Colourful figurative ceramic sculptures
Astonish the viewers.
Acrylic painting stalls in plenty
Reflect the landscape,mountains,
Pastures,meadows in the country.
Baskets of multiple varieties,
Unique contemporary baskets,
Sulptured cedarbark basketry,
Gourds,coloured of different shapes
Amuse and tempt to buy.
Dancing dolls with kites
Flying butterflies
Pedalling boatmen and women
Hang from the ceiling of the stall
A major attraction indeed.
Wheels of commemoration and meditation
As an axis of hope
Soothing to the mind and soul from
The turmoil of life.
The flute,made from bamboo cedar oak,
Played on it by their grandfathers
Transport you to distant lands of peace.
Incredible strumstick,touch of it,
Releases charming music,
pleasing to the ear.
Elegant sterling and mixed metal jewelry,
Beaded braided jewelry,
Flame work glass jewelry,
Festive ornaments,
Gemstone and pearl jewelry ,
Electric jewelry to name a few
Appear in many stalls.
Like a sickness and cure
Like a rain and Sun
Life is a mixture of pain and pleasure.
Disability ,not a hazard,if near and dear take care of.
Stunned to see aged in wheel chairs being brought
With tender care to enliven them
The sight of these master art pieces.
The shops and the stalls
The driveways and the roads
So expertly planned to enable the
Physically challenged to have an easy access.
No wonder,
With unconquerable spirit even a lone person
Manages to shop independently.
