I want to tell you a story- of a special place that I just love. A place full of vivid colors . . . where I can be washed in hues and tones. It is a place hushed and shrouded in stillness and tranquility sublime . . . It is a cathedral down the street- and within is a chapel of stained windows. Ovate and circular and rich with gleaming tints and at a certain time of day . . . I can hide in a camouflage of stains purple, red, green, gold, blue- spatters and splashes . . . A rainbow of concealment- and in this stimulating silent place I sit. I can contemplate and write my poems and when a drape of shade falls . . . I leave but I bring the rainbow of camouflage with me- I keep it in my soul . . . _____________________________ March 4, 2017 Poetry/Free Verse/Rainbow Colored Camouflage Copyright Protected, ID 17- 881-947-0 All Rights Reserved.

thanks for sharing this narrative of your poetic muse. Hard sometimes to hang onto a rainbow when the shadows overwhelm. You are to be commended for your faith, BW. A great read.

This is a beautiful story and I am so glad it is true. No doubt a place of inspiration, I can see it works for you, those colours transcend through you and light up this place they do :)

This is a real place that I go to write, a church is a great place to think and pen a poem, something about that deep silence and peaceful atmosphere just inspires me, and of course I love all those stained glass windows.
