If words were  colours
I'd splash them about
I'd flick them at you
I'd press my fingertips in thick globs
I'd twirl my brush sadly  through
Mixing shades.
Standing back to admire
I'd ponder the reflections
Mirrored in your eyes
"Paint me "  , you would beg.
And I would......
In silvered gold.

Oh, I like it !
Words are 'colors' ... aren't they ??  
Heck of a paint job, artist !
