Bouquet for the Soul

I need to find me again
Lost since way back when
To change the color of a thought
Find myself that I forgot

Scorching red, darkest burning black
Needing brightest pastels brought back
Pale purple will become a written flower
Only vibrant colors hold that power
Pink, orange & yellow bloom a sunset rose
Purely pearl white only a daisy knows
Greens & browns are natural hues
Lighten my soul with sky & baby blues

Uplifting my spirits along with my mind
Imagining a bouquet with flowers of every kind
Picking bouquets makes everything better
Add some grasses, unique sticks, a feather
It's working better than I thought it would
Ways my imagination can do me good
