Tiny hands

Painted image of fairy tale lands
Spread on canvas with tiny hands
Pudgy fingers grasp rainbow colors
Splattered portrait for her mother
In the midst one lone dark cloud
Masterpiece shaped like a shroud
Abstract forms expose deception
Pained inspired sensory recollection
Watercolors bled from innocent tears
Experiences beyond childhood years
Unskilled brush strokes reveal despair
Exposure to such no child should bear
Reinforcement of healthy growing
Loving kindness and gentle showing
Encouragement with words so tender
Tiny hands will flourish with splendor
