My Two Paint Brushes

Quote By Poet "One can paint with paints. One can paint with words."

Oh, to open a fresh can of paint,
can you smell the color?
A bright sunny yellow paint fills this can,
my brush will bring in the sunlight.

Today, I will paint with words,
red for the new fall apples.
They are juicy and sweet, 
ready to be baked into a pie.

Oh my goodness, I think I can smell it before you even put in the oven. Mmmm Autumn what a yummy time. To me, your poem is certainly "painted with " mouth watering words. :)
