I can paint a picture
So vivid in your mind--
With tints and shades and hues,
Of beauty undefined.
The shimmer of the sunlight
Upon a drifting sea--
The stardust in the night sky
That stretches endlessly.
Words will let me capture
The colors of your life--
Of wishes, hopes, and dreams,
Of moments lost in time.
The crimson of a rose
In love's first haunting bloom--
A fire's golden glow
That reaches through the gloom.
Words alone awaken,
Make memories unwind--
The moments, days, and years
You never leave behind.
The verdant grass that grows
Beneath a child's feet--
The full moon's silver light
When lovers' lips first meet.
Let me paint a picture
So brilliant to the eye--
With tints and shades and hues,
The spectrum of your life.
The myriad of tones
That now are woven through
The mystery of life,
The rainbow that is you.
