LIFE


The black and white of it
splashes itself all over the skies,
mixed within a multitude of colors
pleading with us to realize
we are all refractions or reflections of One,
a celestial being too multi-hued to describe adequately

and the rainbow is our visible cue
that more than one color is favored
by whatever god controls the sky, land and sea

and wouldn’t it be nice
if our human eyes could see
how we might reside side-by-side
as beautifully as those bands of color
which grace the walls of our universe?

This is a cool write because it made me think of when I flew to Hawaii on a hellish 10 hr flight that made me feel like I were in a psych ward

BUT

during that flight, somehow, I saw twice, the entire spectrum.

Kacy, it was amazing . . . and yes.
