Lush green village
The Red River flowed tirelessly
Blue hills stood stall
Like a Guardian, vigilant forever,
Summer rains and puddled road
Painted walk of life.
A Golden kiss on the horizon,
Morning sun painted the velvet sky,
Hope renewed every day.
Flock of birds flew high on the sky
Mind traveled far.
Sketched journey of life.
Sweating under midday Sun
Walked forever,
Sleeping under midnight sky
Dreamed sweet dream,
Brushed shelter of life.
Love was palpable,
Spring blossomed in full
Happiness plentiful
Fall brought magical pallet, final stroke
Canvas was full.
A whisper became cacophony,
Dream sweet no more
Nightmare everywhere.
Small dark Cloud in the distance
Deadly storm now.
Petals dropped, before it could bloom
Hopeful eyes once, teary now,
Swept away everything.
I stand lonesome
With an empty mind
And my Blank Canvas.
