Kaleidoscope
As I close my eyes
I remember all of the colors in my mind,
That have intricately intermingled,
Into the only one of a kind,
Swirling around out of control
Like a masterpiece made in heaven.
I can see all the colors of my world in front of me
Spinning around like a watercolor dancing on ice,
Similar to colors in a rainbow that I have seen
Not once, or twice, but thrice,
Just so brilliant and beautiful....
Magenta, fuchsia, tangerine, yellow,
Jade, cobalt, and violet,
Magnified with such intensity
Has influenced such strong feelings
That has mesmerized not just me
But an entire community.
That is the kaleidoscope of my world
Which is also fascinated by others,
But it means so much more to me;
It is similar to the path of my life.
Because wherever I go
And whomever I meet
Becomes a part of who I am.
No two people can see the same rainbow.
Not many can honestly say
That they have seen mine.
But I will always see
The colors of my kaleidoscope.
