Blank Canvas

I am a blank canvas
     My potential is
 limitlessness

  But that all depends
    on who holds the
brush, the artist

A Painter starts with a White canvas. Soon, colors collide and a Masterpiece is Created. Same with a Writer. Words tenderly touch the page, and then a Poem is born. Congratulations Alexis, on Poem of the Day. Keep painting with your words. :) Brandy
