Poem: Colours of my world (December 2010)

BLUE:

Blue, like the sky that opens up to the heavens

Blue, like the river carrying the cool currents of the earth

Blue, like the tranquil feeling it carries

Blue, like the water we need to survive

 

Green:

Green, like the hillside dividing the land

Green, like the forests hiding their secrets

Green, like the blades of grass that sway in the morning breeze

Green, like those few trees visible through the winter’s fog

Orange:

Orange, like the dying embers in the fire

Orange, like the last rays of light at sunset

Orange, like the withering leaves that fall to the ground during autumn

Orange, like that last flickering candle waiting to be consumed by darkness
