Painting From Within... Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver

Spring had sprung and the bud budded…
Dreams opened into the beautiful rose of time
Mind eyed a place forested with lots of colored candy canes-more
Than, the small creative eyes, had ever seen, and mental factors comprehend
Even, more than a minor child could ever experience

Strong first impression of the good folks before: imprints not weakened a-bit
Desiring a higher floor, then step by-step reached the top…yet them
Long-gone thoughts still push and shove; only to have its way again
Like friends and folks pushing others aside: just to one-up and stand out
Still, I equal small creative eyes; envisioning my freedom of expression room,
To co-create today and yesteryears’ eyes and minds: the source of inspiration that
Writes and paints on blank sheets the canvas of life….
