Just a simple piece of paper <br />Lying naked on the floor, <br />It had so much potential <br />To turn into something more; <br />Completely void of color, <br />Completely void of lines, <br />An empty artist's canvas <br />Waiting for a poet's rhyme; <br />A chance to tell a story, <br />A chance to make you smile, <br />Pretty words upon the paper <br />Make it famous for awhile; <br />Just a simple piece of paper <br />Like a garden set to bloom <br />With a little bit of nurturing <br />Fed by a poet's plume; <br />Sad and lonely piece of paper <br />Lying naked on the floor, <br />I'll cover you with words <br />And turn you into so much more.<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/plain-paper/
