In the silence of the night
My thoughts are mine alone.
Coursing through my brain before I sleep.
And it's then, in total darkness
I paint pictures in my mind,
But sometimes there is one I want to keep.
Though sadly in the light of day
The vibrant colors fade.
I close my eyes and take another peek,
And to my surprise they're still there waiting
for me.
Transforming canvas into paintings that I
seek.
