Release my dark thoughts
Swirl them into deep blue sky
Focus on the now
Anxious orange jealous green
Let my brush paint stress away

    anxious orange

    Really? I never thought of orange as anxious… not really sure I ever thought about it as anything, actually, but it’s one of my favorite colors.

    And- beautiful poem and painting, Paula!

    Paula, I hope you don’t mind that I tagged you to pick up the baton and run with it in Marla’s latest multi-author blog hop. If you’re not interested or available let me know and I’ll pick someone else.
