Black And White
Angels and brides do come in white.
All things beautiful, light and bright.
Demons and witches prefer black,
evil ways and means to attack.
White, pure, inspiring, eternal love,
gift of peace, freedom, and turtle dove.
Black signifies ever cold darkness
spreading in the heart unchaste blackness.
Pretty seven colours add up to white.
Black has powers that take away the light.
White and black, colours contrast in nature
bringing out emotions that birth, nurture.
Black, the preferred choice of people in power,
dressing in black suit, shoes, case, car, all over.
Black is so tempting just as all bad things are,
White is regal virgin canvas above par.
Character is ever etched not in black and white,
are dubious shades of grey that are seldom slight.
Colours have character, beware the type of light,
that shines upon them to help us wear what is right.
