Different Strokes of a Feather ?

Picture me this all colors and hues                                                                                  
As quite breathes arise from bland                                                                                   
A brush you pen then you choose                                                                                
Blank verse before my hand                                                                                          
An empty page will be our clue                                                                                    
Lets start off of the tune of one band                                                                                  
A void canvas needing understanding before you                                                             
The quills behind my ears as listening ears stand                                                               
It’s already there painting together Journey anew                                                         
With paint on your shoes an idea in mind                                                                      
Like a rhyme starting some where in time                                                                         
I grasp for words as you gently shade                                                                              
Our mistakes are erased as we turn the page                                                                    
As you have sketched a defining line                                                                          
Perspective is only blind to those who refuse to see                                                           
I scratched out some to draw on words to say                                                                 
An image not blue though it my contain                                                                       
Let’s blot together the painterly journey anew                                                                  
To some this maybe just ink stains                                                                          
Missing the scheme we gained a mime                                                                       
starting with few a ending not to be                                                                                   
It was already there an art word divine                                                                             
A portrait of together anew journey
