Roy G. Biv

You are light

I am light

reflected through the crystal prism of

time

and

space

 

Each of us shines with a million colors

Fractals that glimmer

in certain light

at certain angles

 

What really matters

is what you see

my blue isn't your blue

or red or yellow

Those colors are determined

by our place in

time

and

space

 

There is an energy

consider it magic

that flows and weaves

in and out

of every person

or place or thing

And like a spell cast

that energy becomes our luster

 

When the sun starts to set

and its luminescence shines though

that cut and shaped glass

window in the front door

we all have

It spills our hue

for all to see

 

 

You become a rainbow

I become a rainbow

our pigment splashed on

life itself becomes our personality

And much like we all have

our favorite colors

that's what draws us

to one another
