Anger he smiles, towering in shiny metallic Purple armour Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him Her fiery Green gown sneers at the grassy ground Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted, They quietly understand Once happy Turquoise armies lay opposite of ready, But wonder why the fight is on... Red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria. Orange is young, full of daring, But very unsteady for the first go round Yellow in this case is not so mellow In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me Black is the cage of depression that envelopes my mind and guides it into dark, untread islands. And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from Giving my life to a rainbow like you If these colors were bolder, if my emotions were stronger Could I be a rainbow like you? If there's a such thing as a Genius, then I'm one. If there's no such thing then I don't care... ~John Lennon [This message has been edited by MoeRocko (edited 07-21-2001).] |

I'm beginning to get a bit irritated at my fellow PIPers. Such wonderful poetry is being ignored. I thought this was very well done! I agree w/ Chasing Rain...The personification of the colors was awesome. Loved it. Thanks for the read. |

I liked the poem, but the ending was the masterpiece for me. I really really liked it. Very well done I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Thanx, alot of times our poems take a back seat to one "JBaker" but with good reason I suppose... If there's a such thing as a Genius, then I'm one. If there's no such thing then I don't care... ~John Lennon |

I thought this was awesome. I LOVED the association of the colors... Very nicely done. I enjoyed this. --Marie You think yourself a failure, but perhaps the biggest loss is winning. |
