De Colores

Confined by concrete walls;

there’s a price that I must pay,

and I can only pray for color

in this world of glass and grey.

Color me up a cluster of stars

polka-dotted on a purple plane.

Color me up a mountaintop

gently drizzled by the rain.

Color me up a white picket fence

and a weeping willow tree.

Color me up a peaceful place

where I can wander free.

Color me up a September sunset

framed by my windowsill.

Color me up a crystal stream

flowing by an old wood mill.

Color me up a painted horse

as gentle as she can be.

Color me up a peaceful place

where I can wander free.

Color me up an autumn moon

shining atop swaying branches.

Color me up a quiet town that is

filled with second chances.

Color me up an old dirt road;

that’s where I want to be.

Color me up a peaceful place

where I can wander free.

As I dwell upon the gifts of God;

those chiseled by His own knife,

everything that matters most

brought color to my life.
