It Started With A Blank Canvas

It started with a blank canvas.
Oh, what should I do?
The worry and fret!
Should I add some blue?
I haven't thought of anything yet.

It started with a blank canvas.
Maybe a line here or there?
Should I paint some green and red?
Maybe I'll paint yellow circles everywhere.
The jumbled thoughts running through my head.

It started with a blank canvas.
Slowly, an idea starts to form.
Over the canvas, my brush I release.
And soon the canvas will transform,
Into my beautiful masterpiece!

Very well written. I liked how the blank canvas finally led to success. The rhyming lines added great form to this lovely poem.
