Colour Light

Colour Light
July 16th 2008

If I had to paint your heart,
What colour would it be?
Red or gold or molten,
Or honey-bee sweet in marigolds?

If I had to hold your hand,
What pictures would that paint?
Slow streams of bluish liquid,
Or quickity-splashes of daydreams?

When I see your mind,
What feelings will I feel?
Will I feel my favorite colours?
Will I feel my heart be faint?

Tingles up and down my spine
Roses light I wish to find
On that bed of water, dear
There they are when you swim near!

I sing
sing
sing
that you were near

I sing
sing
sing
that you still are:

And when I think
That all is lost
I'll sing of the colours you have made.
