Paint the world for me
What colors would you choose?
With one little finger,
Tap the tip of your nose.
Think of a color,
And point where it goes.
Paint the world for me,
Paint it as you go.
Paint it as you wish,
Paint it as you know.
Paint me your mountains.
Paint me your sunrise.
Paint me your oceans.
Paint me your night skies.
What color is happy?
What color is mad?
What color is love?
What color is sad?
Paint the world for me,
Paint what it could be.
Paint the dreams you dream,
Paint the good you see.
Paint me your rivers.
Paint me your breeze.
Paint me your roots.
Paint me your tree.
What color is peace?
What color is song?
What color is laughter?
What color is strong?
Paint the world for me,
Paint your highs and lows.
Paint what I don’t see,
Paint what I don’t know.
Paint me your people.
Paint me your creatures.
Paint me your heroes.
Paint me your teachers.
What color is growth?
What color is rest?
What color is hope?
What color is mess?
Paint the world for me,
I’ll paint the world for you.
Show me all your colors,
I’ll show you all mine, too.

If You Write A Book, Don’t Tell Anyone
There are days when I’m grateful Amazon doesn’t tell me specifically who has bought my book and who hasn’t. If they did, I would be heartbroken when I read the list and noticed all the important names in my life were not on my list of customers.
