- Chameleons -

                                       In rhythmic pouring
                                          and accumulation
                                           of polished tears
                                       cold against the cheek
                                    Moments of uncertain time
                                           as ash and dust
                                    A buttery sun burned hope
                                  - light gradually disappeared
                                       lost its precious lustre
                                   Broke the harmonious bond
                                        of the power of love
                                  scentless greenhouse orchids
                                      we are all chameleons
                                            - can't ignore

Believe it or not We make ourselves blend in on the soup. We paint with words those of us who can. Putting our egos to the test finding and reminding. Mineing and refining words sometimes bereft of time itself. Practicing for Authorship or just wasteing time relaxing.

Absolutely!~chameleons we are...which is not to say that what we felt when we felt it was not genuine and loving. Forgive, forget if necessary, and move on. Into the every-changing new. Love it!

Your descriptive passages are nothing short of phenomenal. It is an undeniable truth that we, as human beings, possess the inherent ability to adapt and change much like chameleons, and to dismiss such a fact would be a grave oversight.
