A blank canvas in front of us,
An image of you with colors black and white.
As you walk along the path,
You will encounter different people that will add colors to your life.

Some would paint you yellow,
Like a sun beaming with a smile.
They will bring you warmth that you will never forget.

Blue like the ocean will come in your way,
A feeling of comfort and sense of calmness,
They will greet you with a wave that will hit you but would never hurt you.

Sometimes there will be gray that would cross your path.
Loneliness and sadness comes with them.
They are those who lost their way while trying to fill up the canvas of life.

Pink blooming like a flower on a field.
They best fit with things that glitter and spark.
You would see happiness in their eyes,
And wanted to keep them by your side.

An image of a strong and dependable man forms in my mind when I saw Brown.
Like earth I can stand, they will never let you down.

Green green grass dancing in the wind.
A suitable partner when your in need,
Someone to cry on and would never leave,
A true friend during thick or thin.


No, they will never let you get hurt,
Violets are like knights who never fails.
Tough like a wall but with a heart as soft as a foam.

My favorite color of all? Red.
A color that makes life such an interesting work of an art.
You may see Red in a different way.
Red, like a lover that left us.
Red, like the husband we pledge our love.
Red, for my first love.
Red, for the man I can never have.
Red, for the unconditional love of a mother.
Red, for the person I want to spend the rest of my life.

All this colors,
Once painted on the canvas of life,
Creates a beautiful portrait of you,
That nobody else can have.
