Reason A. Poteet Poet Rhyme

Creation's Colours - Colab

Flowers with colours enchant me,
Buds budding and blooming,
Beauty surrounds, fills me with glee,
Nature’s way of grooming;

Critters with colours charm me too,
Paws dancing; tails wagging.
Talented tricks they learn to do,
Hear pet owners bragging. 

Multicolored folk glow with light,
Kids gleam with hearts of gold.
Red and yellow, brown, black and white
God made us all we’re told.

To show God’s colours, it’s our part
To shine on His wavelength.
Charged to love Him with all our heart,
With all our soul and strength.

Looking around, I stand in awe
of God in creation,
I want to dance and shout hurrah!
Such is heart’s elation!

Author’s Notes:  Joanna Daniel wrote the first and last stanzas;
I joined in with the middle three.  In writing this, I discovered
that it is the wavelength of light that determines color 
and the wavelength of sound determines pitch.

Linda Alice Fowler April 25, 2023 at 6:19 AM Fabulous addition with the critters and people. Your take expands the thought much more than mine. Very nice! Thanks for visiting my page and commenting. :) Reason A. Poteet April 25, 2023 at 8:20 AM Thank you, Linda, I am still toying with the idea of working in God's "rainbow" but it would likely take another whole stanza and three is the limit. I never know what a sponsor is looking for; I welcome your read and reply very much.
