Colors Speak...remember (Free verse) by LuckyJoe
Colors speak unbounded amounts,
Open your eyes take a view,
Read the story they allow to unfold,
More memorable than any words,
Expressions of the heart, within told.
Take a look and enjoy,
Smile if only for a moment.
Look deep and become lost,
Feel arms of innocence cradle,
Gracefully warming your soul with joy.
Smile if only for a moment; for me.
Think of all the things yet to be,
Time will pass us by,
Happily weâll remember our moments,
Breath in deep the smell, memorize.
Each time this scent tickles your senses thinkâ¦
Think of the moment in time, and those that led to it.
Donât feel bound,
Not playing games giving the run around,
Just man enough to face reality,
Strong enough to thank you,
Even if pain is broughtâ¦
Because weâll both think back and smile,
That joy fulfilling all pain,
Pain if any will be short and out lived,
The memories of near perfection held dear,
Warming mind and body on cold nights of remembrance.

I wrote this yesterday for a female friend thats a little more than a
friend... its a confusing ordeal. She leaves for college in under a
month :( So I picked out some roses and other flowers, got a vase and
put this poem and a little letter inside the vase. Sprayed some of my
cologne into the vase so it soaked into the papers then covered the top
to keep it locked inside. Tied it with a little bow, it was priceless...
breath takening indeed. The little letter was what each flower and
color of that flower represented and and explination of it fit into our "
friendship." The letter and poem did one another justice... worked with
one another to make each better. So if the poem alone isn't any good
sorry :(
