Jo Pearson's – Take A Seat
She left her studio early one day
Prowled along the footpath to a busy café
Familiar noise on her daily beat
Take a seat in this urban retreat
Take a seat, feel the essence
Take a seat, embrace its presence
Take a seat, live the dream with me
The people she sees, so photographic
Nourished by constant footpath traffic.
Meeting for coffee is the urban flavour
Passing time, their ritual behaviour.
Take a seat, feel the essence
Take a seat, embrace the presence
Take a seat, live the dream with me
Inspiration in flight, in this urban delight
Tables colours and shapes, are filtered through the bright.
Under umbrellas, like sprouting flowers
Invite her to sketch away the hours.
The sun shines bright; she has her views alight.
New ideas come into sight.
Pen to paper, she draws objects and space.
Cut-out paintings, carved into place.
Taking risks and altering rules.
Taking risks using carpentry tools.
Taking risks, creating artistic jewels.
Take a seat, feel the essence
Take a seat, embrace its presence
Take a seat, live her dream with me
