Colorful or Chimera Words-UPDATE Poetry Contest - Sponsored by: Constance La France
She wears many colors in her hair Though some laugh at her, she just doesn’t care The rainbow is her crowning glory For her life once was a sad story. Downcast she’d been since coming to earth She’d never known the meaning of mirth All she had wanted was love and peace But the conflicts were never to cease. However she excelled well at school Till illness struck, life was so cruel She recovered, but lived life in pain Carrying on though she remained lame. One day she found the love of her life ‘Twas wondrous when she became a wife The invisible chains disappeared Along with all she had ever feared. Now she sings because her heart is light Everything in her world’s shining bright So she paints highlights into her hair A colorful rainbow all may share.
