    An Artist's Brush
    By: Twisted Heart

    Each stroke her weathered hand has made
    Into the swirls of florid paint.
    Lazy circles with the artist's brush
    She dabs upon the empty canvas.

    Simple colors of brown and green
    With a blue sky, becomes a scene
    Nestled in her thoughts so clear
    She paints away the wasted years.

    Within the depths of paint she finds
    A threshold to forgotten times
    A whirl of love, out of control
    Transcending from her very soul.

    A stroke of passion from her heart
    Brings to life this piece of art
    Upon the canvas, now she sees
    A lovely spark of fantasy.

    hey,
    dreading time had her account deleted. she said she'd still do it, but she'd have to use my account. So, I'm going to let her until this contest is over.

    thanks, kate.

    oh and she said she'd do wrinkles.

    It's not my best, but I have a lot going on. So, it's gonna have to work.

    Wrinkles

    Grandma, sing me that lullabye.
    The one you use to, when i was young.
    Sing me that lullabye,
    and tell the story of why it's sung.

    Grandma, sing me that lullabye,
    telling of great love.
    Sing me that lullabye,
    the one I'm thinking of.

    Grandma, sing me that lullabye,
    that tells why I'm losing you.
    Sing me that lullabye,
    you made as life you went through.

    Grandma, you sang to me that lullabye,
    and now I must sing to you.
    Tell you of how much I love you,
    and all you've helped me through.

    Grandma,I sing to you the lullabye,
    of how those wrinkles on your skin,
    wouldn't add up to the love for you,
    if you mulitiplied them infinity times ten.

    Grandma, I sing to you the lullabye,
    of your very death, the tears stream,
    and I begin to remember those lullabyes
    and all they made me dream

    done!! lol here it is!

    Chewed Gum

    Staring up at you
    you just pass on by
    You would never ever know
    That the chewed gum cried

    It cries for the mouth
    That has spit it out
    It wonders, quite sadly,
    What's this all about?

    It was beautiful once
    All wrapped up real pretty
    But someone chewed him up
    And spit him out in the city

    He sat on the sidewalk
    In the balzing hot sun
    No longer enjoying life
    No longer having fun

    But he still feels beautiful
    When he looks up at you
    He knows he'll be okay
    That much is true

    -=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=-
    not my best work, this was a hard contest... but I feel honored to be a part of it!! =]
