I scribbled in the sky
I colored in the grass
I put you in my bookbag
To take with me to class.

The colors that you spoke
Were different than the rest
My family did not like you
But I thought you were the best.

They said you wasted time
That you made such a mess
But once I took your lid off
You put me to the test.

As time went on
I got older and so did you
And when I took your lid off
your colors did not shine through.

So because I still love you
And think you are the best
I still have you resting
in the top drawer of my desk!

This was written about my childhood minnie mouse markers.
They had the neatest colors that werent like any of the other markers that I had.
