Life's Canvas
December 19, 2010
Life, a blank canvas waiting for color
Each day, a brush stroke paints true destiny
Vibrant and rich are some days, others duller
Every artist capturing beauty
Triumph and success bring orange and red
Despair and desolation painted blue
One wrong hand motion causes so much dread
A fatal mistake ruins perfect hues
Layers upon layers shield the error
Life goes on and the artist continues
The brush is dipped, a look of sheer terror
The paint has run thin, and lost is the muse
Once lively tints begin to fade and enlace
The absence of color, black, takes their place
