Points of colored paint
On a canvas in the sun
An easel for picturing
What it shall become
A palette of thoughts
Streaked against time
A hint of imagination
A message so sublime
Drops of life mixed up
Forms waged in a war
Underscored with love
A portrait of life’s door
Entrance to the meaning
Of how this day began
A simple piece of art
Transforming in my hands
