Placing These Bricks

Words appear on a page.
The spelling is spot on.
The punctuation is perfect.
The syntax, sparkles.
The paragraphs present
a pleasant block with edges
that please the eye.
It appears as a masterpiece.
Most will not know the toil
that placing these bricks of
soul entails.
Some will attempt to read
through tears,
others still, through lenses
of countless colors.
Through the reds of anger.
Through the greens of jealousy.
The blues of loneliness.
The blacks of despair.
Read on, and swallow the colors.

Ahh but some will know & appreciate that putting words together can make beauty from pain & turn a fleeting thought into a piece of art.

Well, of course I did know that. Haha. I just couldn't think of any colors that are associated with happy emotions, at the time. Lol
