Colour Banquet

twist of the wrist, jingle of glass bangles, a play of light, kaleidoscope of colours! patterns of bright reflections, each different from another, and never ever the same! a garden of flowers, a forest of autumnal trees, orchard of oranges, a basket of apples, pouting red lips, smiling pink faces, tearful black eyes, shades of emotions, who makes these? golden crimson sunset, silver cloud on full moon, white birds in blue sky, unending stretch of green meadows cerulean mountains with snow peak, red beaked green parrots, the pink flamingos, a myriad of colours, in depths of oceans, fish among corals, deadly undulating jelly, speckled sea snakes, each colour a language, each movement a sign, every vision a gift, a magic of retinal display! what hand holds, twists this kaleidoscope?
