I lay down my canvas,
Paper flat on the floor,
Looking for words,
Searching for doors..
It's not there for paint.
I look for...EMOTION!
From out of your feelings,
I'll make you a potion.
Where are the reds?
Right there with your blues.
I color your world
As I step in your shoes.
Look at the orange, the lilac, the green..
Show me your passion,
I'll paint you a scene.
Words writ poetic
Can be such a fine weapon,
Used perfectly,
Cuts through all the deception,
To give you the truth of a wonderful life,
Vibrant in colors,
Slice through like a knife.
I am the magician..
Change a color to word,
Then I meld them together,
Forge a beautiful sword!
I take you to high, I take you to low..
Then twist you around,
To leave you...breathless,
Asking for more with a sigh...
I will never leave you,
Just look all around.
I am every word in color but...
I make not a sound!
PEACE
