Let Me Paint You a Story

pixabay

Beneath winter's snow moon
seeking color to brighten the mood
pigments of you and I run together

brushing starlight into a darken sky
my dreams alive in vibrant hues
layers of blues, sing in the night

searching for undiluted words
bold with meaning, breathing life
fiery passion into sleeping dragonflies

awakening to the scent of violets
connecting heaven and earth
spring blooms feather out upon
the canvas of my mind

let me paint you a picture story
in an endless sky, about a love that
will never die...

  7. Beautiful, Truedessa! The first two lines reminded me of when I lived in Newfoundland, so long ago. In the winter the only colors were white, black, and grey: Grey skies, black spruce, white snow. At that time everyone in our outport painted their houses in vivid combinations of color to relieve the dreary winter landscapes ~ not that they weren't beautiful in their own way, but because the winter seemed to go on forever. I so loved violets in the springtime in Nova Scotia. They don't grow here. :( Have a great week!

  9. You’ve painted a cool winter story in shades of blue, Truedessa, which reflected in the frost I woke up to this morning. I love the lines:
    ‘pigments of you and I run together’
    and
    ‘searching for undiluted words
    bold with meaning’.
    , breathing life
    Thank you for the scent of violets!

  15. Paint away! I shall tend the blossoming feathers, watch their flight, and continue the story-gardening when the time comes.

    This is yummy.
