new youth


i like the smell of paint
and the newly painted
yet to mature
like those tender years

between those desired and undesired impressions
waiting to find expressions
every touch every unintended encounter
leaves work for a lot many touch ups
yet
the scars will show when in bright light

i like the smell of newly painted
like the smell of new youth
to be preserved and protected...
