The Painting
A gift given by God
To paint in the pictures
I grab my supplies
And pull out my elixirs
What a complex painting
It’s telling the story
Of my people
Who work hard
To recieve glory
Red, I chose
To give life to the death of those who are no more
Orange, I chose
To allow my sibling designs to be the new fashion uproar
Yellow, I chose
To create the songs on the wind
Green, I chose
To nurture the broken land
Blue, I chose
To represent the tears on faces that feel to the oceans
Purple, I chose
To not allow us to lose our royal devotion
Black, I chose
To paint the color of our skin
Now I must singe the edges on fire
To give it its true meaning
And crumpled attire
