we
merge our temperas
slather our papers
with bright colors
that mirror the things
that could come ahead
if we mixed our colors
what would they make
a hideous brown
or a more vibrant hue
something beautiful
a passionate color
rather than brown
ugly worthless color
if i mixed my own colors
and you yours
do you think it would
be beautiful
if we made them one
then slapped them –lovingly
of course—on virgin sheets of white
made a painting of our colors
that we mixed our own way
do you think it would
be beautiful

so much goes into the colors of our lives - what a powerful question to ask if the combination of colors with another would be beautiful...something to ponder - loved your poem - Paul

It's very creative so I'll spare you the sarcasm this time. Aren't you a lucky little Barbie? Make sure you get the minivan in the divorce. oops. was that sarcasm? still like the poem.
