One final colourful goodbye
A tender loving kiss good night
Slowly the evening settles in
On a gentle whispered breeze

Strange To Me

The shadows of all 
colourful objects
are dark 
in light,
Even the shadows of everything white,
So, does it mean
all colours are a great lie 
in sight?

Premium Member The Winds Applaud

The leaves engage in

      Colourful acrobatics,

            To the wind's applause.
