The Colors of Living Life

i was dreaming of 
  colors    inside
my lonely Soul  of
Cobalt violet
and viridian skies
Inside keeping my
heart so cadmium yellow;
Claude Monet's lilies
keeps me alive.
Imagine cobalt blue,
a peace upon the canvas
lead white kissing 
with French ultramarine skies
and we hold hands
-- where we leave grief
and misunderstanding
behind.  Kissing beneath
the sun i say, "Cadmium
Orange hugging Vermilion"
And the world murmurs 
"That's so very true."

Sun Woods thank you so kindly for your reply. I love Monet's lilies and my current canvas I'm painting is coming along well! :) ~ Peace with you!
