Watercolor Dream

A stick-figure family painted in bold primary colors
is propped upon a child’s easel.
Under the sanctuary of an oversized sun
children run happily through green meadows
with lopsided red flowers.
While parents hold their quarrels
Behind inflexible smiles; never allowing tears
to ruin their masterpiece.

Hi Snow -

Thanks for stopping by. I usually just copy from WP and that program places caps on every line...thank you for catching it. I like your suggestions and will revise. What do you think about changing 'ruin' to 'smudge'?

I have that problem with WP too!

I like 'smudge' - it's more visual.

Live one day at a time -it's simpler that way.
Laugh loud & often - it's medicinal.
Write from the heart - it's therapeutic.
Beauty comes from within - the outer is just skin!
