Color As Expression

Color Poetry Competition

By Christopher “CJ” HerringPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Color evokes and color inspires…

Like red and orange can create thought of Stonewall rioting fires.

Some colors are free and others more repressed…

They affect how both the wearer and those looking feel when worn while dressed.

Color is as diverse as each soul on the planet.

There was no other way that the universe or my God would plan it.

Color can be harsh and color can be rude…

Color can be soft and very subdued…

We can all wear color to express we are free.

It’s a way one can show who or what they want to be.

Every color that exists is something no human eye will ever see.

That’s why color is the perfect expression of diversity.

If it is sexuality or mood it takes a lifetime journey to do…

Discovering all the colors inside of me you.
