Norman Rockwell

Rockwell was my rock
The reason I became
A graphic designer
Seeking fortune & fame

Achieved my portion
Of the fortune part
And fame, at least locally
Graphics was my art

Long before computers
I was king of the hill
Even after, my design skills
Were valued still

Worked on the art table
Longer than most
Wasn't sent out to pasture
Till later, I can boast

I still miss the challenge
That faced me each day
A big part still longs
To revisit yesterday

Surely at my happiest
While practicing my art
That pleased my clients
'Twas the best part

Receiving recognition
I sorrily still miss
Coz I know I'm still able
Now I just reminisce

Norman Rockwell was my rock!
