Purple, green, red, and white

Majesty, nature, passion, and purity

Colors that streak the evening sky

making me question my purpose, reason, and the definition of why?

Dawn break brings a whole new fashion of delight

Sparks of orange, yellow, and blue

all around me I see things that make me question, and wonder -

What is true?

The golden light that graces my skin, makes me feel alive but perplexed by the rainbow I strive forth to learn

I know someday, it will be my turn.

And when those colors blend within those cerulean skies, I know there's still more out there. So much further, discovery lies.

Magenta, Turquoise, and Chartreuse

The box of crayons has so many shades, but it seems like even when they're broken there is value in them - like the wax will never fade.

The sky is a canvas, a daily portrait of living art - shifting and changing, directing us on until the next part.

The mixture of colors that pass before all of our eyes gives us an opportunity to see art in the average rendering it not so plain then; for when taking stock of the beauty all around us we're given a new and fresh vision.

With focus on explorations still yet to be done, we can expand upon our mission and take a new hold on ourselves - realizing that the sights we imagine, see, and hope for all count -

To a picture of joy, sadness, merriment, and stimuli, and the colors may change, the motions may fade, but it is in these things we must patiently wade as we work our way toward our ultimate purpose and the best life is set before us.
