The Colors of Light

My light shines bright and bold I’m told

Even as I’m getting old

Ever-changing light. The light that gives me might

the light that gives me sight.

the light to do what’s right.

With Colors to behold

Even closed eyes can see

indigo, white and gold.

My light has many colors, from the blue of my eyes that sparkle and shine.

To the Aura that clings to my body and soul.

Light bends to help make a rainbow, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Sunlight has all the colors of the rainbow.

Blue sky and Sunset and, Aurora Borealis too, colors to delight.

Primary colors always the same

Colors for mood, and best colors to wear

tried and trued

Wear red on fourteenth of February

twenty fifth of December too

colors defining occasions

like red, white and blue

green for saint pat

orange for the hallowed pumpkin

and white wedding gown.

Pink and blue.

Black for sexy and death

And at that last breath

To the light and beyond our souls awake

to sparkle and shine for goodness sake

The light for you the light for me

Colors free for all to see

inspirational

About the Creator

Vicki Cunningham

I love to write. I have been writing since my early twenties with scads of written material. I have written a screenplay, a book of poems, and countless vignettes inspired by life, love, my children.
