Wash me in color as you see, how you feel - I, your blank canvas, await; make me real. Bring me to life with your brush; paint me air - a breath with each stroke; fill my lungs; show you care. Paint me… I’ll wait patiently. When you’re through, I’ll rise each new morn in a lovelier hue. Artwork by David Walker artofdavidwalker.com @davidwalker *added 9/10/19, with permission

Thank you, Rick. Funny, my original had a fourth stanza which changes the mood entirely, but I like it like this for a change ;)

Hello, this lovely poem would make a great entry for the seasons transition contest. By describing the way the fall colors and fresh air affect you, you bring the season to life! Best wishes, Carolyn
