Words Are My Colours

After a twelve hours long bath 
The glitter sun ascends from 
the sea
And demolishes the realm of 
grey in 
The sky.   
I give my eyes to east where
The rising sun begin to bring 
golden 
Offerings to the pale land.
I then give ears to the 
melodies in the
Thanksgiving Choruses of the 
birds.

If the earth continue to turn,  
Tomorrow I will delightfully 
gaze 
Eastward again because 
there's no other 
Effective ritual to resurrect my 
muse 
And waken my pen.

Poet is the man that rap 
words around
His fingers- I'm not poet- I'm 
a painter. 
I can paint a blue sun in a 
golden sky.
My pen is a brush- words are 
my colors.
Give ears to my lips and I will 
paint  
Smiles upon the canvas of 
your cheeks.  
Give to my words and I will 
paint 
My feelings upon the canvas of 
your 
Heart
