The Missing Colours

they only gave me three crayons to draw what i remembered

so i drew the tents and the path that went nowhere

i made the trees big and crooked

i didn't have the right colors to show the cold

or Dad walking into the woods

and never coming back

When I see this image, I think of camping. I am not a camper.
