Embracing Colour

Wearing the colours of the rainbow

Can change in attitude

From - look at me

I’m woke

Bespoke.

Made to measure

Annually timed

Seasonally placed

For maximum effect and care!

*

To

But of far greater import,

Finding

On a continuum

That the purview of red, hot passion

Exists for one and all!

Not just a fashion for an exclusive few...

*

The sweet care for one another

Is the essence of life;

Rife if you will

With love.

Equality in its’ truest sense.

*

Everyone of every hue,

Needs to date,

Mate - Life long

*

And,

Enjoy that God-given right

To love in the purest sense

To experience that whiteness,

Lightness of being...

To find gold

Amongst the silver and the dross.

*

To be equal

In the public arena

Not a want

A right!

*

Being feted in the truest sense

Is to be

Open. Free.

*

Live the sequel.

The opposite of hidden.

Dark and grey,

Where depression

Is sadly sometimes,

Still the order of the day.

*

But to witness

Those colour-filled Carnivals

Is glorious!

Where revellers

So loud and proud

Own the joy

And the streets..

*

The blinding colours of the

Seemingly impossible

Combinations of

Movement, height,

And space.

That trace people irrepressible

Living, loving, laughing

Festive to extreme.

*

Loudly. Proudly.

Secure in self-knowledge.

Hard won!
