Forced Myself To Pinken My Day
Today was pink yellow and orange.
Started out red and purple
Concentrating on sore throat
Oh woe is me
I am unhappy
Why me?
Remained dour for hours
Until I forced myself to pinken
By picking up a canvas
Lost in the colors for a few hours
Forgetting my sore throat
Orange on my finger now
Coaxes a smile as I
Remember the yellows
And oranges that distracted me
In their prettiness
Color therapy, garden therapy,
Painting therapy,
Grandchild therapy,
I am pretty easy
Knowing how to
Eliminate or camouflage
A red and purple day.
