About This Poem

Best Color of Your Love


Paint your mood in a shade of blue,
Paint your soul in the presence of the Lord;
Paint your mind in sweetest  thoughts,
Think of those people who need you most.

Draw your arms open, as they reach out,
As they help others, erase all doubts;
Sketch a lip, smiling with great happiness,
Giving love and care without regret.

Trace a hand to wipe away the tears,
A glowing look in your eyes to calm one’s fear;
A silhouette of dark overwhelmed by light,
Giving hope and peace on one’s  life.

Use a brush so light and so fine,
To paint a sun to warm one’s heart;
Showing that God’s love is the greatest,
A love ‘till end of the world never cease.

Inspired by Celine D.'s lyrics in Best Color of Your Love for the Copy cat contest

    Leonora, wow... wow... I have a poem called the deepest blue. I actually painted that poem off my shade of blue mood. Your poem is very beautiful. I love walking in sweet thoughts. I will paint that color pink. And my kids and granddaughter need me more than I need myself. Can I share my good deed of the day :-) I donated over 10 ~ 30 gallon filled bags of clothe & 4 Tv's to a family who lived down my old street. My kids and I did not mind. My kids are starting out with a new wardrobe.

    Thank yous so much PD. I'm pretty sure Sally and her family will be very happy. I remember my best friend who migrated at California 5 years ago. I have dedicated my poem, Our friendship Destiny. The initial letters of her name are found at the beginning of the first line of each stanza.
