COLOR OF HAPPINESS Approaching middle ground looking back,does a certain palate bring a smile Perhaps pink or blue given to make us coo,rosy red cheeks telling a simple tale Yellow sun taught as fun,sky not gray but brilliant blue,looking down for glowing green grasses not the dead earth perceived as vile Red & white candy stripers a helping hand or holiday candy canes, uplifting, something to regale A tank sits idle,clear water just mild ,but adding some life ,a few fins they shimmer electric blue,neon green and a few gold fish brings new style Pale empty pots take no position until repositioned with plenty of posy's ,without new shades all would be stale Smiley face has no grace when seen in black & white ,more fun in sunny hues their fun faces will always inspire Rainbow forming from gray is an instant show, making short work for a frown to grow helping to reshape our own profile Every person takes a favorite ,each cause chooses another hue, brighter showing more view ,lesser tones blinding desire Drink it in like a pretty party punch it's sweetness softens our affairs,will it help or change what we cast ,brighten a dull day make it worthwhile So when do we refrain from hiding in shadows to basking in limelight ,taking in a moment of what is bright,Break through the whitewash to something we admire R.C

A few thoughts or feelings on how we take in what is around us,have long wondered how color effects personality or how certain types of people can not be comfortable unless everything is flat? or beige. This is a lower tone but similar thoughts when I painted the house PINK & PURPLE :) thanks for reading. your input is appreciated. Rick
