We view Life's situations through different lens-rightness and wrongness being subjective.

A prism splits light, allows us to view various hues, and most importantly, appreciate them. All shades must come together when we need light for reading and other purposes

Each shade is distinct, and one of beauty. Let’s celebrate and appreciate differences, all.

********************************************************************

Light dawns

In different shades

Varied colours, vibrant

Each strong, round note in our verse

Merging

But each hue a clear addition

Ringing with purity

A lovely call

To one.
