Painted On Canvas

Teresa Whitney

Rhymed
If I paint for you a picture,
Explaining my feelings true,
How you have touched my heart,
Would you want me to,

Every color of the rainbow,
Brushed within our lives,
Bestowing beauty rare,
Yes I will be your wife,

Softened winds are blowing,
Upon this picture new,
Offering love to you my honey,,
A love so rare, and true,

Within this painted picture,
I hold so close right here,
Reassuring us my honey,
How much we truly care.
