Wood and Paint

Wood and paint is all it is
So many memories
fun, scary and exciting times
Riding on my surfboard
The darkest black you can imagine
Darker then a black hole in the night sky
Wood chips fall to the ground
The smell of freshly sanded wood fills the air
As I sand it sharp and pointy
Hot and smooth like a cat, sun baking on a hot summers day
Strokes of paint green and red
Just like a rose in the royal garden
Fitting in my hand comfortably like putty
I imagine a small mouse riding a wave
Having the time of his life
Feeling the spray of the wave
Seeing the light at the end of the barrel disappear
A wood and paint creation purely for fun
