Poetry: Blank canvas

Blank Canvas

The blank canvas exposed
Plain, white and free.
Ready.

Anticipating the coming brush,
Loaded with color
So bright!

What will I become when
The artist's dream emerges
On me?

Will I filfill his vision?
Come to life here?
I breathe.

Open to the possibilities,
Offering myself freely,
Use me.

I am the blank canvas
Made just for you,
Paint me.

Then as we two become one,
No longer virgin white,
Complete.

As I explore the wonders of the new me
You explore with your heart
And smile.

    Mind blank, canvas unscathed
    By the writer's ink poised to
    Etch some wisdom and inspire
    Eyes yet to open to behold the dire.

    A wise old friend stopped by to see,
    Our newborn on that first week.
    He placed a shaking, gentle hand,
    Upon her tiny, pink

    "Empty Pages"


    The pen was full of black ink,
    papers covered the desktop,
    dictionaries stood on edge,
    and an empty journal
