The Color of You
Can any one color define you?
What color or hue can capture the essence of you?
A soft, shallow blue that resembles the sea
Or a bright, light green reminiscent of ivy?
Perhaps a sweet pink that brings roses to mind
Maybe a sunset orange, that one of a kind
Some yellow like daffodils, goldenrods, or tulips
Cheery, cherry red suggestive of velvets
Purple like the sky before it fades to black night
But no color on this Earth amounts to my sight
With you as the focus, my love, and my life.

The Imposter
May 21, 2024 - from my notes app I noticed something as I read the comments on my most recent Top Story. It is easier to type a "thank you" in response to all the wonderful comments, especially when you want to say "you don't believe it." A can of worms those words are, one most people would be more interested in burying deep into the ground. The thing about that is the worms can always make their way to the surface. So here it is.
