Best Coloring Book Poems

We loaded up for a Sunday drive
The Ozark Mountains were alive
Wild dogwoods of pink and white
Every shade of green in sight
Blooming jonquils and daffodils
Woodpeckers, blue jays, and whippoorwills
Even though the painting was unfinished
Nature's bounty was being replenished

On switchback mountain roads
Past gray bluffs where eagles abode
A...

Fall is Gods coloring book,
All the reds orange yellow and greens.
Nature couldn't be so bright. 
Technicolor on a movie screen

You don't have a belief at all,
There are 3 other seasons of the year,
But nothing like fall even compares,
The...

The green song of Spring. A coloring book - the pages fluttering.
Pastel azaleas blooming. Violet hyacinths hug a vertical space.
Lemony tulips with lavish leaves. Iris cycloglossa ~ lilac, yellow, blue.
A felicitous field of larkspur. Petrichor and dewdrop bliss. Sunkisst!

When little CJ comes to visit
She asks me for her "colors,"
The bright, fat crayons that "nanna" keeps
In a recycled butter tub.

I color on the right, carefully converting
the puppy outline into...

Turning the pages of God's coloring book
Beauty everywhere we look
Human minds cannot comprehend
The Greatest of artists and His pen

Each season, paints a different scene
Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring
The sun in summer, so yellow and bright
Forests of green such a beautiful sight

Vivid blues take on the...

While driving down the interstate
A random stop brought me here today
Where, painted mountains touch the sky
and, Heaven's reflection on the water will stay

Serene surroundings from petal to bark
Just a peak of God's coloring book
Under a brush is where I'll lie
To a sky...

Here I am again…
With a blank page staring at me 
and thoughts that I can no longer suppress
are Screaming in my mind
wanting to be expressed

the reason for my distress 
Is actually quite simple
Because My existence like air
and I’m slowly fading away
To a place that’s dark

Human...

I opened a box of crayons today
The smell of the colors just take me away!
and..
-Poof!
    I’m back!
    Lying on my bedroom floor
              Feet up and swinging

They pulled the browns, the blacks,
the reds, the yellows, the greens
from their nestled places and
pressed them
against an intricate Sketch,
to paint
their own

what lurks behind the shadows takes refuge in the
places that one cannot speak without a lawyer and
a place to stay when the going gets rough in the
shadows right out there buried & bustling without
restraint without subjection to the parameters in

A bountiful array presents itself,
    From its constant electro-magnetic display.
With a spectrum of rebounding wavelengths,
    And a variety of colorful todays.

This multitude of color gives us boundaries,
    From the infra-red to ultra-violet.
Providing our perception with stubborn...

The underside of a gutter guard
Moved for mowing...

On a turtle before Stan died
With his antenna intact
And the wind at his shell's back
He'd relax while enjoying...

Unaware of upside down
A gust uprights Stan

Antenna Askew
Neck stretches to the heavens
The skew is gone
