Green Kites

Ideas are green kites that lift me high
birth most beautiful blue dreams
To my dandelion delight I fulfill in teal time
For I can do amber anything

Oh! You say I’ve run away
Imagination is a red train
But to stay in hazel head all day
Isn’t always a bad thing

Purple prophecy, proposal cerebral kind
For if you dare you will not fail
To never give up is divine.
Heart desire is burgundy boat’s sail

When I write black soul takes flight
And I can go anywhere
I can be wrong I can be right
The fun is in getting there.

Where do you find the time to read poems when you create such powerful lengthy ones yourself? Thanks so much for taking time to read my little poems.
