Colour is fading
I’m feeling jaded
Need to be
Coloured in again
Crayola box of six
Red, yellow, blue
Black, purple and
Green
Extract, place in lips
And pretend to inhale
Like it's a cigarette
From a beautiful
Foil wrapped
Packet
Peel off the paper
Use all the primary
Colours you need
Fill in the spaces
Make a rainbow
Follow the numbers
Smudge the lines
Just colour me in
With a Crayola
Box of six
Please
Beautifully put Lynn.

I can't grab the crayons on this one Mr Bibby. It is about a mother who has a brain disorder and wishes her child could make it all better with the basic picture he/she creates.

Brave to have somebody else do the colouring. Crayola gripped withtight knuckles bunched and tongue gripped between teeth beneath a furrowed brow. careful careful carefully don't cross the lines .. you will make her all fuzzy. ....ahhh too late she fuzzed and fuzzed . ....grab the crayons yourself lynn you will make better choices on colour combinations and borders. Make her fizz and fizzier

I feel it too, at times. You write without fuss, not maudlin or trying to force obvious emotions . Just superb
