A band of comrades rather strange I think you will agree This oddball bunch together shared a commonality… The panda didn’t pander to the niceties of style He wore his usual coat which he had done for quite some while The zebra was a Libra with an eye for what’s in fashion She loved the skin she’s swaddled in and...

Premium Member From Monochrome To Coloured Sight
Before the day turned into night, When things made sense amid the light, When darkness was a shade of fright, When I saw life in black and white... Life in colour brings confusion. Do I see truth or illusion? Must transcend mental contusion- Processing feels like intrusion. The night compels one now to take This challenge on for ones own sake. Learn from success and...

Monochrome Light Stereo Sound Full Memory
Bathe beneath a monochrome light Be that sun , rainbow or moon light And place yourself front and centre preferably in the very middle For the sole purpose of securing Some form of hope for your foreseeable future And reeducate your ears to listen Switch them back onto Mono not stereo setting So you are then enabled to let Old forgotten familiar sound back in Rid...

Premium Member A Life In Monochrome
Black or white? How can that be? I’m sure I see a kaleidoscope of colors. But something is not right. I can’t distinguish which is which. They all look pallid white or ebon black. I panic. Where are the rainbow hues? All gone as if violent squalls of a mighty hurricane Swept them off the face of a tempestuous...

Stepping Out of the Monochrome
Black and white movies, old even when I watched them flicker still on an inner retina. A hero turns conspiratorially, staring into my future; what he said into the camera then, is silent now but I see his lips move as if he were predicting this moment. A heroine hikes her skirt over her thighs; blood fills the flesh of memory, a dialogue recalled by younger...

Premium Member Monochrome Mirages
I cherish old photos in monochrome They seem more poignant and focused Had they been in colour they would be lost In dazzling cobalt skies and lapis lazuli waters Turning my world into monochrome I often wish I had a switch in my brain Stopping all these colourful distractions To focus and absorb to cherish life Like a top spinning my inner self...

The World In Monochrome
I was given passion. I was given eyes that fall in love. All of them betrayed me and whisper that I’m not enough. I tried to breathe, stubborn and be, but all they could ever see, is someone who’s not worthy of being free. So I ask God, to let me flee, but he is one with mercy. I rise to see another...

Recurring Monochrome Dream
I'm phasing in a recurring monochrome dream, velvet whispers lead me to a sonorous stream, translucent visions fall as vibrating showers, retracing footsteps on trampled golden flowers. Fragrant lullabies guide me on bronze ferns, a flamboyant willow guards the deserted turns. ...

Memories Forever
My play buddy ,my agony aunt, sometimes sweet and sometimes blunt. I am blessed with a man in my life who has always been by my side, by the way he is also the one on whose back i have played horseride. Over the years his hair turned grey, but still he is the best coach when...

"The Monochrome Echo Chamber" How many Roads to "IT" Black as Black & White? or Unicorns and Rainbows? Unitarian 1 and only 1 Trinitarian 3 exist in 1 An answer arrives unheralded Reversed in Time Something has lit the fuse Something without colour grown from sparks Light through Matter Dark is opening gates parallel not Agate Monochrome splits Inside the Onyx-brained hive fractured static morphs...

Monochrome
Aged glacier, gentle ice, forever you remain. While our torrent sacrifices memory for fame, forever for a name. Lofty mountain, overseer, you never condescend. We beat a track on broken back, and fail to comprehend, means justify an end. Immortal ocean, secret deep, Such treasure must you hold. But footprints found along your shores, speak of futures sold, of pockets lined with gold. Open sky, you beckon freely, offering your home. We...

The lamb of March morphs into a lion, and with a roar, Winter decides to fight. As the Pleiades flee from Orion, the lamb of March morphs into a lion. And flurries bury the dandelion, denying Spring flowers essential light. The lamb of March morphs into a lion, and with a roar, Winter decides to fight. Denying Spring flowers essential light; the earliest blooms...

Monochrome Girl
Silence and noise Daybreak and twilight Monochrome girl In black and white. Each day living In a world with no Colour or life Or glimmer or glow. Both colours Meaningless as the other White a nuisance Black a mere bother. Soles thudding on ground Running away From the fears that haunted Her both night and day. A gasp of pain Sharp shoots of dread Monochrome girl Now splattered with red....
