It Is

It is

…in the sky
…on the ground
…inside these doors
…outside this building
…on your plate of food
…on your money
…on your clothes
…on your skin
…right beside you,
right now
…on the flowers of the field
…the irrefutable truth
…all the proof you need
…not revealed by light,
but defined,
…only valued in the light
…everywhere, it is color
 So color is truly defined
By the amount of light allowed
Just like people living inside
Multicolored shells
We are defined by the amount
Of Son’s light we allow in.
