Color wheel, visible light, color spectrum. Colour wheel

Aspects and expectations of color, be amethyst, be the best, reenlist, sensory seizes sparks stimulator. Be lavender and sweeter, forever, be cerise and release your masterpiece, aspects and expectations of color. Be amber then enter to surrender, be tourmaline, my dream still-ravish-cease, sensory seizes sparks stimulator. Be sapphire and satisfy the desire, be white in your flight and be the moon's cheese, aspects and expectations of color. Be copper, chart-topper and showstopper, be, Xanadu that perfect hue, true tease, sensory seizes sparks stimulator. Be ivory, more finer, best primer, be, turquoise, and make with the noise, puh-leeze. aspects and expectations of color, sensory seizes sparks stimulator.

I've been playing with this during other completions, hoping to be one of the enders for 2023, and have one more be up in a few. Usually, I've over twenty in the works at any given time, needing to finish out the sonnets and close it out, then start the Flora sonnets as the next round. Did not know Xanadu/color aspect--a lot more colors there, phew. A fine Christmas day, my friend. Aloha, William
