Another collaboration with my ultra-talented friend Kim from the blog Peace, Love and Patchouli
Took us a while to finish this one but it was worth it. I’ve collaborated with her on multiple poems now (this is the third)Â
If you are interested in seeing our previous collaborations here they are:
Visit her blog and bear witness to how she brings light into the world through her amazing writing 🙂
***********
The world, our canvasÂ
Is as clear as it could ever be
Impromptu strokes, beyond stokedÂ
For the surprise, I am yet to see.
Follow the scene of my soul,
lighter moments of colour
Paint the scene of my mind
Keeping pace with the road ahead
As steps move us forward,
In places where anything goes.
Lo and behold
Paintbrush bristles, kiss the poetic palate
Imprinting our souls and what they see;
A persistent light in the unrelenting darkness
Painting pictures with words that appraiseÂ
What the rest of the worldÂ
Would not hesitate taking for granted.
I follow my bliss with a like-minded soul
Travelling into the paradise of beauty
And I know you will follow me to the end of days,
In this moment we shall walk together
Basking in the creation we become
Upon this canvas of a place called life
Treading lightly into the miracle of now.
