Poetry from Barbara Kasey Smith’s Corner of the World
Color me what you see through my eyes
joy, happiness, tears falling as I cry.
Color me ugly or color me beautiful
permit others to know I’m truthful.
Color me genuine or color me fake
color me the color of my morning’s wake.
Insert colors to describe my heart
allow others to feel love I want to impart.
Color me a sky blue or color me cloud gray
allow them to see sunshine lives in my day.
Color opinions good or color them bad
don’t like seeing people who are sad.
Color me the love I have for Christ
permit colors to light up the crest in life.
Color me giving of myself to those I can
reaching out to touch another’s hand.
Color me like a gigantic radiant moon
grant rays of flowers in Spring bloom.
Color my mind with sundry colors galore
to match countless things I have in store.
Color my soul a brilliant shining red
it’ll allow others to perceive the love I have.
Color me true colors you know and want to
it’ll never change the love I have for all of you.
