Black is All the Colors - By Poppy Seed

If you put every colour that exists on earth

Into a pot for what its worth

Black is the outcome the rich reward

When all that you are is outpoured.

Like the black poppy seed is quintessential

with its maximum growth potential.

The black bird’s voice is as strong

As the resounding swan-song.

Black eclipses and defines the Light

Like inclusivity on Human Rights.

Back to beginnings, and at the end

Alpha and Omega indelible friend

A mark that ticks, and credits good

A finish line overstood

Black is not a country, and like no other

Black is inclusive of All colours.
