Colours of Life

The colours of life, love of my abstract mind
Bright and vivid, my thoughts intertwined
Tastes so crisp and sweet, what a delight
Fresh and new like pulled straight from the vine
Life is such a path with lots of twists and turns
You just never know, what you will learn
Flourishing us with beauty til the day is done
Or revealing us adversity, a challenge begun 
Life is such an interwoven tapestry of colours
But worthy of value no matter how dark
Whatever the colours of your journey
They are what they are, your diversity of life!
