Finger Paint


"there are pictures in my head no palette can match
ideas you have never seen
when I was six, I could not let go
I can let go now
and let the devices be

I cannot explain the creations that come
when you are gone to the world
and all its machines
to leave the brushes at our feet
cover our world in dreams"

Hi, my name is Johnna and I want to invite you to check out my blog Colors of Ink. Colors of Ink is a blog serviced though blogcharm-- a web host that pays me like 3 cents per click. I am using Colors of Ink to raise money for homeless awareness. There are so many people here who know what its like to be without shelter-- to live on the streets or in your car-- I was one of them when I was ten, eleven and twelve. None of my family wanted anything to do with my mother or me. We found a new home in Louisiana and now I am in South Georgia going to school. So I want to raise $1000 for the homeless-- but first I need at least 100 people to click on the link to my blog a day. So will you visit and pass my link on to your friends? Here is the link http://www.blogcharm.com/Colorsofink
One click from you is all it takes-- and if I get 100 clicks a day just think of how many children you are helping out and not even paying any money to do so.

Take care,

Johnna
