Paint a picture
Paint a picture (A Poem)
Paint a picture in my mind,
Dancing rainbows, laughing time,
Walking forests in my dreams,
Singing shadows, looking fine.
Smiling faces everywhere,
I just look at them and stare,
There is something they have done,
They are playing in the sun.
I have seldom thought this way,
Saved it for my rainy day,
Wash the colors with such ease,
Make the future as I please.
Paint a picture in my mind,
As these words fall out in rhyme
Now is relativity,
All depends on what we see,
There's no black without no white,
There's no white without no black,
Different colors equal height.
We go forth we're still behind,
We see darkness we see light,
Can't see everything in sight.
Paint a picture in my mind,
Things will change for life is kind.
We will get, what is denied,
Just keep something to remind,
Life is hope, hope is divine
All the seasons I must find.
Doesn't matter dark or bright,
There's warmth in a winters night,
When a caring thought comes by,
Everything just seems so right.
Paint a picture in my mind,
It is done now let it dry.
