Under the stars upon the wind

0 posted 2001-03-17 10:57 PM



White is the color of the paper before me
Drawing is the hand what only the mind sees

Red is the color that draws a happy grin
also the color of a lover's sin

Orange is a color bright
the truth yeld within it's light.

Yellow the bind that ties
Upon it's hope all lies die

Green is the envy inside all
Also the color from which we may fall

Blue is a bold hue
In it is wrapped the memories of you

Indigo considers some thought
In it all the fears we have fought

Violet the color of what is to come
What the future brings a mystery to some.

I look down at my picture that I drew through happiness and strife
The rainbow of crayon pastles, my life...

I do like your box of crayons. Maybe I need to consider getting a box of crayons for myself.

Oh wonderful!!!!!! I applaud! This is original, well written, with an excellent powerful ending! Nice job, Voiceless.

This I understand. I have lots of paint and painting and pastels are a favorite of mine.

I wish I ould paint myself any of the primamry colors. These days I just sketch in charcoal and grey.

Is a nice poem, a nice thought.

Best wishes

I love what you did with this one, Voiceless. Very creative and the colors are marvelous.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats
