This is the Way the Mandala is Made!

 A mandala begins simply enough, 
lines...shapes...color

 A quarter turn...a quarter turn...
color goes all around 

 Little things added...
a ruffle here

 Bold lines there

Choices made

 and changes, too

 Definition...

 Detail...a flourish here and there,
a quarter turn...a quarter turn

 Once more 'round the circle...
this is the way

The mandala is made!
