I rather like the part of color,
which is to do with how bright it is,
how it can shine even in dim lighting…
Color
A quiet moment,
as yellow fades into pinks…
It’s gone winter grey,
hidden far too far away…
When one designs
a pie chart,
one generally keeps…
I don’t know what makes a perfect color,
but I’ve got some serious thoughts…
Was it the flecks of gold,
that made it so valuable,
to people who often didn’t have a word…
Warm me with your eyes,
hold my hand,
light me with your stars,
if I don’t follow you,
it’s because I’m at your side
You sink into the embrace
and it doesn’t matter that you can’t see
because you don’t need to open your eyes
as long as you are safe here in these arms
The smooth cobalt
of a sky you can’t touch,
not so much that you can’t reach
but that if you did, it might swallow
you whole
If it’s kelly
it’s terry like a bathrobe
if it’s pistachio
it’s pudding smooth
if it’s pine
it’s a prickle bed of needles
if it’s olive
it’s rough canvas
