Your Own Masterpiece

Walk gallantly and do not faint For the season is ripe for you to paint Your canvas craves for the kiss of your brush So paint eagerly but do not rush Fill your canvas with different hues Fill it with reds, violets and blues Fill it with greens, oranges and yellows Fill it with golds, silvers and indigos Riddle your canvas with legends to tell With vigor, courage, triumph and spell Though sometimes your sky is riddled with blues Make your painting worth the dues Make your painting fit for the season May it be winter, spring, summer or autumn Give it the strength to brave the strongest storm Give it the courage to venture the unknown Write your conquests boldly as a tale Make your pen a fountain of stories to tell Make the rights and wrongs of yesterday Chart the steps and paths of the future and today Write well you legends of love and affection For love is a tale far greater than fiction Among all the virtues, it is leading in motion It can lash a cold heart without any potion Dare to walk on track that only few men take But be cautious enough with every step you make For everytime you make a clumsy stride A greasy path could be waiting to cause your slide For your life can be your own masterpiece So write and paint well the legends of your piece Fill it with colors that are worth reminiscing Make every season worth remembering
