A Colorful Life

Tiny's bruised cheek is pure color
where two brothers collided
black, purple, and yellow
quite nice I've decided

Angel face has chosen
with eyes blue as steel
persistance in learning
and innocence real

Miss M shoots red lasers
watch out for her ire
lives life with a passion
and a book by the fire

Bug sees only two tones
its black or its white
he'll defend truth and justice
he will do what's right

Lucy is radient
a dancing princess
bright yellow like sunshine
in a loved wornout dress

Bam-bam the ham ham
learns the trade of the clown
a farmyard of noises
the joy of the town

Mother is green
a green pillar of hope
the force of our family
the keeper of soap

Each day has a story
of friends, joy, or strife
each one makes my memoirs
a colorful life
