Eyes of a child

sorenbarrett



 The sky a painted ceiling
unpainted white patches remaining
Golden rays of feeling
Unfinished splotches moisture retaining

Multicolored arc brushed
from wall to wall
Rusty horizon blushed
The floor a green drop cloth shall

Flowered drops from a rainbow speckle the ground
Crumpled rumpled green cloth hills
Banging paint tin thunder sounds
Running river paint spills

Footprints lead the way 
to a masterpiece unfinished .....

        If that dress was a brown colour, we would say 'What's that old sack she's wearing?' lol.

        A child observes, begins to interpret, acquires language attempts to marry the two (well some do, at least0and then describe has, for me, much resonance in this poem, Soren.

                From the eyes of a child indeed, what a stunning vision of simple innocence and happiness without rules. 🌹
