The Ocean - Rich Blue
The Sun - Beauty Scarlet
As it makes its way out of the sea
Looks like, to all those who see

The beautiful and splendid sight
Who wouldn’t want to see ?
The positive vibes it brings along
As the Dawn sets and the Day commences

But now the sea is more Colourful
With Yellow lays packets and Brown choco wrappers
Bottles of juices, cokes and more
Rising and falling with every wave
More like a dump yard than the blue marine?

How much this world is changing now
With litter in every nook and corner
But one day I wish to see
Earth litter free !

The trees still green, I wonder how ?
The plants and bushes that grow on the ground
The green fresh look they still seem to have
After all these humans, don’t give a d*mn

The dust in the air, taking away the charm
The fresh green leaves,
I still wonder how
But I see them grey-
In a few years from now
With all pollution
That will take over the world
Grey will  be the color
Of the leaves

Children will  learn the color grey as
The color of the leaves
The color of the sky
The color of the air we breathe
Nothing seems to be fresh
Nothing seems to be a beautiful sight

We now as individuals, must do our part
To help these plants stay fresh and green
For the years to come they should
Be a wonderful sight to see—
The color of these leaves
Must be Beauty Green

Someone stole my color
And threw it to the wind
Scattered like ashes
I don’t know if I’ll ever find it

Someone stole my color
From the face I know so well
I saw it in the cotton candy clouds
And the teal ocean swell

Someone stole my color
I guess that’s where it went
The world looks so much brighter
Like something heaven-sent

Someone stole my color
And that’s what no one knows
Depression isn’t black
It’s the color of a rose

It’s the light orange in a sunset
And the yellow of a peach
Light blue, my favorite color
So simply out of reach

Purple like my favorite eyeshadow
No, lavender, I’d guess you’d say
And my favorite music artist
Although he has passed away

Someone stole my color
Now everything’s too bright
I suppose sometimes darkness
Isn’t the opposite of light

Someone stole my color
So I’ll wear grey and black
As if in mourning
Until I get it back

The love, the rain, the sight
Of this place,
I might see only once a year
Brings me the happiness
That no other has brought

To leave it and go forward
Isn’t as easy as it may seem to you
The fun, the memories and the amazing journeys
Seems to be etched into my heart
For what seems like eternity

But I know I need to go on
And come back to see it yearly
Although,How much it means to me
Can no words convey to you

But this love I shall have
To this place forever
Go and come, I wish to
Forever and forever .....

The strong bond
I shared with you
I shall cherish forever

The smiles,the cries and the petty fights
Enlighten me as I look back
To those days, we spent
Enjoying,sharing and caring


The words to describe this bond
I fall short of...
Though none other shall know
How much you mean to me
But this bond has been a great part of my life
And shall lie deep in my heart,
Till eternity, eternity and eternity
                                                 With love;
                                                    Your bestie!
