Colour is Pride: True Colours

My Life is a Canvas

Written by: Jessica Buchanan

My life is a canvas, a surface of white

Brand new beginning, a prism of light

Colours all mixed start dancing around

Deep breath I am ready both feet on the ground

Staring for hours with vision in mind

Feelings of fear that I’m falling behind

Expression of colours erase all that is black

I feel proud of my art I’m not turning back

Each canvas started as blank as before

The walls I call home collection of more

Each painting created so close to my heart

Hue of all colours an abstracted art

Enlightened as many a colour is splashed

Breakthrough my emotions by cracking the glass

Through strokes of each colour my painting appears

The details of each are a message quite clear

Nature sparks storm in which rainbow is cast

A promise of hope and deleting my past

I live in creation each colour explored

Collection surrounds me with wide open doors

Life without colour I wish to no soul

I feel in my life colour plays a great role

As seen in a painting true colours don’t lie

Passion for art feeling blessed which is why

I leave you one question answer quickly right now

Does your life attract colour and if it does how?
