Coloring
Fills empty abysses
With joy
And life
It transforms
Simple black and white pictures
To portraits of
Warmth and light
The former hole
Of mystery becomes
A portal of
Clarity and beauty
Blank, soulless paper
Is brought to life
With the easy solution of
Crayons and a smile
Why can't
A dull meaningless
Life be colored in
By a small hand scribbling
Why hasn't
My soul
Been brought
To life yet?
