Colorized

If everyday you ate rainbow colored food

Apples, carrots, bananas, spinach, blueberry pies

And absorbed into your eyes all the sunset colors in the sky

Watched blue finches in flight

listened to red crossbills sing with delight

Dressed your body, drenched your senses

Engaged your mind with thoughts both colorful and kind

To find real bliss in your body, where it’s never been found

Reject the subtle mind visions, your mind engages in

They are just aerobic exercises to understand and explain

The things that make you excited while seeking a higher plane

To imagine real bliss your mind must first learn to submit to it

Inhale, red roses, orange poppies, yellow daffodils,

Posing against a wall green with Ivy tendrils, drink it in

Until you’ve reached the mighty goal of unthought

That all-pervading, Absolute stillness,

hidden on the other side of what is known

and never will until Gods Grace is revealed

Did you think God wouldn’t provide our perfectly

Healthy body without a cure for a color blind mind.
