All these colors

Form the palette of my world

Red, green, and violet

Coalescing in a blinding swirl

My friends are a youthful blue

Laced with misty white

So many things in view

Not a possibility out of sight

My mother is terracotta brown

Cobbled with gray rock

And however I may fall down

She is a constant, my only dock

Strangers are candy yellow and pink

Butterflies floating about with ease

Their wingbeats catch the breeze

Without the worry that they’ll sink

So many colors

Weave the tapestry of life

A rich brocade of rainbows

Without a trace of me
