White is a Color

The art was most masterful on the dark canvas One could see it from a distance away They won't say her cheeks are too dull or too dark For this picture shines brighter than the fierce day A canvas of black is all I required Plus a pen and some colorless ink They won't say her hair is not wispy enough The people will like it I think In time, I completed her delicate face She grinned at the outside world looking in They won't say her eyes do not stop your heart She is stands out among the chaotic din One day, this image may fade away While its memory still burns in your sight They say white's not a color, but look at your shadow Your shadow is darkness, not light
