If I Could Paint The World


A splash of blue I’d throw
to the wind, and watch it
take flight, across the sky it
would go to meet the
morning light.

The greens I’ve picked from
dark to light, tossing here
and there, to make the trees
and shrubs twirl in delight.

Pinks and reds all shades
do I use to fill the hearts of
people everywhere, who does
not enjoy the melody that
these colors bring to the
souls plight.

The sun does shine with its
light so bright, but not quite
enough yellow for me, so I will
sweep the land with daisies
sunflowers and daffodils.

We still need more color to
fill the hearts that just stay
in despair so how about some
purple and some umber and
maybe  a little splash of white
to let them know that their
hearts desires can come true.

To top off this paining of mine
I will add the secret touch of
life’s pleasures and place the
birds and bees just so in hopes
to see a smile from all of you
to let you know just how much
I care.

You see, your day can be any
thing you want it to be, all
it takes is a little paint some
imagination and a heart to
fill in the beauty of life’s
dreams.
