Poet's Paint

I paint with my pen,
my words form the lines,
my language gives it color
its depth is in your mind.

When you read my words
when you hear my rhymes
think of the paintings
I've immortalized in time.

sometimes I paint it somber,
sometimes my words are brash
but always they are clever
I want my words to last.

Each painting comes out different
within each different mind
but without an open canvas,
you'll never see my lines.

So take a moment to absorb
experience each word you see
the paintings are my gift to you,
for the mind is my gallery.
