watercolor

my friend 

your canvasses exhibit that 

you are my water

refreshing, tranquil, unbounded 

with confident flicks of your brush

and a humble blush

my friend

you are my color

yellow, blue and green

you showed me happiness 

your lips spoke harshly like bright hues

yet gentle words of wisdom 

to make a diluted blue

you have cleared my vision

and now our time has come

to overcome
