To Do List
by Laurie Kolp

The ad in the paper caught my eye one day
“Oil painting classes,” is what it did say.

“Portrait, figure, still life, landscape,”
A new way my creative thoughts could escape.

I cut the ad out and on my fridge it went
Right next to the illustrious sewing event.

“Someday I will do this,” went through my head,
"along with everything else to do before dead."
