The Artist’s Inner Dialogue

Today is a
Happy day
I feel it as I
Skip along the sidewalk

I feel like making
Something beautiful with

All kinds of colors

Red orange yellow green blue

And my favorites,
Indigo and violet…
Now I leave my happy beautifulness
By way of chalkdust
Or maybe fairydust 
Where you can find it, too
