MASTERPIECE, ME


Oh lord, Tonight I surrender my soul to you. I am the flowing, gliding paintbrush, you are the Creative Hand that guides me. You dip me into the brightest splashes of color that I call my life and before my eyes, you paint my destiny. Green, I am but a sapling basking in you love. Brown grounds me and make me whole. Purple sings of joy and my heart becomes at peace. Blue is my home among the stars. Yellow warms my face to a welcoming glow, Orange's effervescence tickles me with laughter. Red-hot passion consumes my love. Black cloaks the night in sorrow and pain. Individually the colors are as meaningless as the emotions they represent but together on the canvas, we create a work of art; a MASTERPIECE. Together we create ME.

Just a wayward soul in search of enlightenment through written word. I write so that the world knows I exist. Gratitude to all who share a passion for expressing their life through written and spoken words.
