her favorite color is blue

her favorite color is blue

A Poem by john-alec mitchell

 if i could i would hold you in my arms

 as i turn your painful memories into a canvas,

and paint over a blue sea as tranquil as newborn lamb.

then i would craft an umbrella from your memories

 as we sit out in the rain side by side looking at the stars, as we wish to clear our

 past so we may forget the sorrow and borrow the time to smile at the beauty of

 the world.
