Creatively Re-use And Re-cycle. To restore my inner peace. A poem by Colleen Millsteed

I can proudly announce that this piece achieved Top Story status on Vocal Media.

When the stresses in my life start to get too much
I need relief and thats when I get my creative on,
To make something that’s both physical and mental
Either pleasing to the eye or useful to someone.

I begin to look around my environment
To see if there’s anything that can be re-used,
Things that are no longer of use as they are
Or are broken and heading for the refuse.

It’s important to me and I believe to our world
That we make an effort to re-use and re-cycle,
It usually just takes a little creative thinking
So many possibilities with a little effort and trial.

So I will write and explain to you in great detail
A couple of pieces I created to restore my inner peace,
Where possible I have creatively re-used and re-cycled
To gain for myself and the world some pressure release.
