Crayon-Box World

The world was bored in monotone
       and colored black and white
              My life slipped right by me
                   until you set it right

You brought your crayons with you
       You colored in my life
              A masterpiece in colored wax
                    My world had no more strife

With no regard for thick black lines
       You scribbled as you pleased
              Although it wasn't Vince van Gogh
                    It turned out perfectly

I marveled in my rainbow world
       I sang out vibrant tones
              I loved the magic you had worked
                     Upon my weary bones

Then I lived forever after
       and forever more
              My life was a mile better
                      when you walked through my door
