What is Color?

It’s not the shade of our skin

Tint in our eyes

Tone of our hair

Or glow on our cheeks

Nor illustrated by the iridescence sky

Sapphire glow at night

Hue of meadow in day light

Or the cast of the vast ocean

It goes deeper

It’s the language painted in fairytales

It’s the words we luminously whisper

It’s the way we illuminate our hearts

And saturate our souls

It does not judge

It does not discriminate

It does not define us

It’s what unites us

It’s in the fabric of all our existence

Our Cosmic transmission

Colour is love
