Quite Whitely

the presence of all light makes white how joyous that concept can be to see the virgin cloak of unity born from a rainbow over a siren sea the iris of eye opens wide ringed by white the morning sun burns the black of night the white of the day has begun chalk the cliffs of Albion’s shore above a stormy sea behold the presence of all light makes white within the iris of soul

Old cathode ray television sets used to project red, blue, and green light in varying amounts that would blend in to form different shades of white. When an artist puts paint on his or her palette, a much larger amount of white is used. Good fanciful write, Debbie.

The light is out there for all to see, unfortunately, many their eyes keep shut! Excellent work! Hope more enlightened poems will be born by your pen!
