God's Palette
Mother would you give me a Penny
Two round eyes looked with a plea
Why is it little one she asked
And those eyes now shone with glee
I need some paint and need some ink
A prize for sure , now I shall win
Her eyes had now a single tear
Refusing would be such a Sin !
How can i tell you little one
My purse is so empty and torn
A morsel how would i feed you today
Her hunger let out a groan !
Look at the sky my little one
Gods palette u can see
Pick any colour and pick your ink
That would be yours for free
Gods palette in the sky
Is it true my dear mother ?
Then shall I pick my colours,
Ink I would want no other.
Such Innocent Faith and such Belief
Now shone in a happy heart
And there he sat with his canvas
Eager hands waiting to start
He gazed up at the Azure sky
Wishing for paint and Ink
Little fingers reaching out
Innocence believes and does not think
And on the paper like a miracle
Colours Filled each and every bit
Blue and purple and orange too
In silent wonder did he sit.
Look mother you were so right
My canvas is no longer bare
She looked in Wonder and in awe
At a painting , One so rare
A painting of faith so innocent
On a canvas of Belief was Set
An art so rare and wondrous
Painted With Gods Palette !
