PAINTING THE SKY
With
the finest of finest brushes
There
is a palette of colors to adore
Let
your imagination roar and soar
Let
the sky be dappled with stars
Shining,
twinkling, shimmering
Silvery,
stunningly shiny
The
sky is so azure blue
Navy,
sapphire and indigo
Let
your paint brush flow and flow
The
night sky is closing in, dusky blues
With
ribbons of green, orange running through
Oh
and the beautiful purple, lilac, indigo
The
glorious sun shining behind the clouds
Giving
them a wonderful hue
Rays
of gold, orange, salmon pink
Which
makes me wonder at these wonders?
Then
think the unthinkable
How
do such wonders appear?
When
they are all so, so very clear
When
you paint the colours every year
The
mountains so high
That
they may almost touch the sky
Sprinkled
with snow, moss and grass
The
sun showering its colours
From
mountain top to mountain top
Tip
to tip let your paintbrush flow
Let
it flow and glow with your colours of the rainbow
The
grasses so green
The
pathways lean and thin
Winding
around the mountains and trees
Let
this be your magical touch
A
little world that you love so much
