Broken Crayons Still Color
Amidst shattered hues, they stay alive, Broken crayons, yet they thrive. Purple persists in its royal grace, Pink too, in its delicate embrace. Shorter, yes, and somewhat marred, Yet each color, its essence unscarred. A tapestry woven, albeit frail, In their imperfection, they unveil. Awkward they feel, in a trembling hand, Difficult to sharpen, to understand. Yet in their struggle, a lesson learned, To cherish each...

Scribble on the walls with chaotic lipstick, or maybe tag with fine graffiti markers; Make it nasty or keep it classy; Pure untamed spirit with all of those wild colors; It doesn’t need clarity just some sincerity to imprison an emotion in an artistic penitentiary; Led by a compass back to where it all started; Innocence and broken crayons blend softly into...

There were only eight colors in a flat box. They were round constantly rolling challenging our dexterity. We colored “inside” the lines lest we be chastised. When we dared we mixed the colors made rainbows challenged the “status quo”, ventured “outside” the lines searched for the Leprechaun and his pot-a-gold. John G. Lawless ©8/20/2022...

Crayons Revisited
We've been thinking how Crayolas come in a box Because we hear they've been compared to a lummox That's a funny thought, a mystery, and a flummox, But we know red is the most used because it rocks! Could be its gender-related that girls choose blue Boys opt for black. Do they have a somber view? Jenna always says, "Put it...

All of these broken half eaten crayons walls decorated with mindless nibbles; Haul out the past of the remodeled house recall a time of free spirited scribbles; Trash, treasure that was left to fade crash erased such carefree lines; Cash left a masterpiece in rubble flash forward nothing left that shines....

Have you heard a carrot scream, when dragged outta earth? Or the yell of green beans peeled alive severed cross-wise, sectioned? Or the curdling yell of purple potatoes plonked alive in boiling water? Or the plaintive cry of yellow corn cobs stripped-searched, naked. All to be less-wasteful, and draw humanely, and guilt-free, in noise-cancelling headphones....

Broken Crayons Still Color
There are times in life where you will have emotional highs and lows. There will be rejection, hurt and disappointment. There will be times you will be broken, your heart, your thoughts and at times even your spirit. But through it all, there will be God's light guiding you, walking with you, shining upon you,...
