Dream Painter

Life is that painting transcending time I am the brush and the canvas is mine Watch me create something you've never seen with colours of yellow black and green Creating beauty isn't as easy at it seems its a pain staking process painting dreams To take that brilliant black and give it life so it mirrors my hardships pain and strife the necessary shade bringing balance in between connecting the darkness to effervescent green Which is the luck and liberty of man a mixture of sadness and joy in my pan green embodies somethings kept inside like malice envy jealousy and pride apart from that it engenders the earth representing growth and the concept of birth Springing forth from the soil like ripening corn to the mellow yellow of the rising dawn in league with the sun and victor's stripe for the glory of gold and its lunatic hype as I run this brush along the slipper slope yellow becomes a beacon of hope I look at the paint splattered on the floor and can't help the feeling that there should be more The dream that I've painted which was done by me brings pleasure to others but won't set me free This piece is complete but the most interesting thing is the level of meaning to others it brings
