"If you have no choice but to accept that this world is real, would you be able do anything to fill it with the colors of your dreams?"kimkwanho

I'd splash over every wall of the universe
until every star and every asteroid was immersed
with a can full of white paint.
Patiently, I would wait and wait.

Until the canvas dried and solidified
into a perfect tapestry of blank insight.
I'd grab my No. 2 pencil and with my trained eyes
outline every love of mine.

Once finished I'll use a pen
and under a Hubble telescope lens
fill out every detail I so desire
complete and finished but to leave me inspired.

I'll add colors beyond imagination,
blend them together to blur all distinction.
Hues of violet, yellow and green
to create the colors of the galaxies.

I'll spread them in every direction so they resemble
Flutes and flowers from the old world model.
Using a orange ribbon stretched very thin
I would hang them on a mobile within.

Scatter across the floor my collection of crayons
I would begin the epoch of coloring the days.
The sea would be pink and the grass would be light blue
As I decorate the world around you.

Surrounded by golden hot skies
I'd punctuate the scene with crimson butterflies.
Draw dreamlike melodies played by a bluegrass band
All instruments, performed by just one man.

Trees would glisten like diamonds in light.
Speckled stones with shades of white.
With a delicate hand I'll adorn the scene
with you, the center of all this majesty.
I was inspired by ~kimkwanho's free verse. [link]

Pretty straight-forward considering I have no prior poetry experience.
