Colorful Fantasy Flights
Colorful Fantasy Flights
You brought color to life;
a soul seeking newer forms.
Into bright red, sandy, realms
holding rainbows in disguise,
you instead slept not
yet endured all—
with honor.
Blank canvas speaks to you
about its great thirst
and colors galore.
Your firm belief in honor and
beauty satisfies.
Did you not find heart in
brush strokes?
Sending painted glee
and with art have you not flown deep
into life's mysteries?
