Mystery of Creativity

Creativity is the act of seeing things that everyone around us sees while making new and useful connections that no on else has made. So, it has to be new, unique, different, and better. This is what the experts on creativity will vouch. However, I prefer creativity relating to humour because this is the area only a few will dwell into.

Many writers and artists have described creativity as something inspirational and which is captured outside the body. If idea is in the air in figurative language, then it has substantiated creativity to have co-existed to form a pattern and image of what has captured by creative imagination.

It is difficult to understand the process of imagination and we are very much at its mercy. And when we allow this to be the stumbling block then there will be fear to think let alone to imagine. As such, creativity will never see the day. To allow one’s imagination to roam unbridled then that will be the imagination to help creativity to run wild from what is obtained from the thin air.

Cuddling like cushion on her mistress’s breast
The warmth and tenderness the kitty sigh
Pampered in heavenly squeeze to rest
The heave of each breath is its lullaby

Untamed is the mind of a creative man
Forgiving lewdness for the sake of creativity
Unbridled imagination is like the fine sands
Polished by thought in the water of sanity

To bring forth the idea without malice
To bring smiles to intended incredulity
Sauntering into the entrance of her orifice
And to laugh at such ingenuity with glee

Seeing is believing yet deceiving to sight
Succulent strawberry in human garden grows
A piece of creation not for a chunky bite
In the mind the seeds of imagination sow

The beauty of hidden anatomy seduces the fragile mind
A touch of fantasy for the master stroke of creativity
Like the bloom of roses and the taste of the finest wine
A sight beholds the creation of a perennial beauty

Li Bai enchanted and Shakespeare bewitched
By the flowery man with outlandish thought
Of one’s nimble mind to find the creative niche
But a juicy strawberry on her fleshy buttock?

Ideas are the creations that may sound crazy but they are not crazy enough to be true in creativity. It is the human feelings that are moved by the value of beauty or love that reveal meanings beyond the boundary of imaginations.

The creative minds must be allowed to venture into the uncharted waters of the figurative world where only those who dare to sail and chart the course of one’s achievements. Without the creative minds the colourful world will only be painted in black and white. There is no limitation to be creative but only with the fortitude to search for more is the mystery that lies between a line of creativity and absurdity.

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all. Edward De Bono.
