Some say the color gray is sadness Yet is it not the in between of stark That you conjure and embark upon Rich emotions that rasp away before A culling of wound and debris Softness as smoke in pale resonance Light, vague in the tone of change The curling whispers of immortality Some say the color gray is drab Yet is it but the base of neutral A balancing of attitude endeared Somehow stable from the pitch once feared A name between the lines of infamy Scene in defiance and charm The artist’s eye of double exposure Am I monotone in heartbeat bleak? Nay, for there is pungent incense Litany and impressionable speech Forgiveness comes in silver songs Is that not gray, is that not light as well? So this is but a parliament of perception Woven to be won in all affection Though gray is not entrapment, it is sound And love is not a mystery, once found Copyright Kkh 12/08/05 |

Gray can say so much....though it often is associated plainly with drab, dull, somber, the color of a tombstone...the ashen gray of a face...so much more... IF only I could sculp the words you do.... |

A name between the lines of infamy Scene in defiance and charm The artist’s eye of double exposure Am I monotone in heartbeat bleak? love it and the ending~~  M |

So this is but a parliament of perception Woven to be won in all affection Though gray is not entrapment, it is sound And love is not a mystery, once found ******************************************* the white, can blind and the black, is stark, the truth lays between, a sigh of softness the moss that forms along the edges of the hardened stone, the unexpected beyond the obvious |
