Miss "Color Me Happy"

Miss "Color Me Happy" lass
I know you know her too
Life is a palette of mixed colors
She's the canvas for me and you

Plastered smile on the face
It may smear but will not die
Expelling gleeful ambiance
Straight from her eyes to mine

No matter what is going on
Abhorring life or just a day
She waves her magic wand
And dismisses all unneeded pain

She is the fairy tale mother
With eyes that glisten in the night
The goddess of the calming touch
Making even death seem alright

Miss "Color Me Happy" lass
Dwells in the strangest lairs
In the line at the post office
Or the barber who does your hair

You may see her on the highway
Or waltzing slowly along the beach
She might be living in your home
Waiting to love, heal and teach

Be careful you don't miss her
Sometimes her grace is slight and slim
Don't be so grumpy you don't see
Or you'll remain amongst the grim

Interesting. I like the idea. Great choice of words. Doesn't touch me emotionally (nor should it have to) so it is harder to connect with. But I think it hits something interesting within me.

Good job

Thanks. Actually, I just wrote it because the other day I was feeling really down and I saw this girl at Walgreens, she just smiled at me and everything felt better.

I loved that poem. I had that happen to me before, I see someone and they smile just the right time and way and my day is better.
