YELLOW AND AQUAMARINE BLUE

   Yellow and Aquamarine blue I just painted my place Yellow and aquamarine blue Not the smartest thing to do You see I have to leave it all behind Now Neutral will sell! They all tell Me But I love those colors They make me happy I need to leave most things behind soon Memories Laughs and Tears I always thought I would die here Just like mamma did In the front room

Whew, this one is heavy

left me going, oh hell, that's sad! Good work! Respectfully, Rett: "Next time you think you're perfect, walk on water." "A Democracy can withstand anything but Democrats." Robert A. Heinlein

Have the colours you love around you

Who's to criticise you. Let them dare! Its your own choice, and if anyone had the right to choose ...now....it is you dear Longobardolino, weaver of day-dreams and magic carpets of poems that take us into beautiful realms un-visited by the mundane, the banal, the everyday chores of life. We sail out into the aquamarine and the sun's yellow and are cleansed by your words of wisdom and joy, when in your melancholy and sadness at loss. But you will not loose us, it is us who will loose you and for that we already are made sad by your poem here. Annunccia.

Well, Joe, I was a Realtor

Well, Joe, I was a Realtor in my last life (a couple of years ago)... neutral is the name of the game, but colour is a love-song. Today I am verdantly crimson with violet anticipation. ;-) "We have to try to get rid of the notion of time. And when you have an intense contact of love with nature or another human being, like a spark, then you understand that there is no time and that everything is eternal." Paulo Coelho
