Color Me

The book on the floor
Lies open to see
Black and white pictures
Staring back at me
That childish sense
Takes over and I
Sit down on the blanket
And color the time by
Yellows and greens
Reds and blues
Purples and oranges
Make colors new hews
That once blank picture
Is now a work of art
And that childish sense
I will never let depart
