Ciao mystery poet, you now have 10 votes!
I love the idea of painting your life on canvas.
Coloured pictures that capture the joy, the strife and the spice that filled your life.
I like the last statement .. life is a gift and sadly too many waste theirs on drugs, alcohol, gambling, porno, war etc.
The artwork is cool!

Thank you so much. I'm so glad you like my thoughts.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is no easy brief with those prompt words and I liked the way you wove them into a short story about your life which, despite its ups and downs, has been a beautiful one. Your lovely image perfectly complements the verse. Just one small edit: vin(e)gar. Well done and good luck! Debbie

As an order, they enjoyed your presentation here very much. I also enjoyed the wording that you used to describe your life using those four words that were necessary. Have a wonderful day and may God bless you and good luck in the contest. Patricia.

Comment from Jeano
Very nice, upbeat and airy. I liked the rhyming, it felt natural, not strained. The last line added a sweetness, perfect ending. I read all the entries, yours was my favorite. You painted a nice word picture for the picture you chose. That earned the extra star for me.
Good Luck!

You use a neat metaphor by painting your life! You were able to fit those words in naturally and in a way that made sense.
Vinigar should be vinegar
Thanks for sharing!, Julie.
