Shades of feeling
Etched in the day,
Black and white.
No grey.
Within the all or none is
a dance of layers,
subtle notes, scents
intriguing, tangible.
A twirl.
Vibrant. Red.
Warm. Orange.
Sunny. Yellow.
A pause.
Living. Green.
Calm. Blue.
A dip.
Deep. Indigo.
Surprising. Violet.
What happens if the vibrant tangos with the surprising?
The warm waltzes with the living?
The sunny sambas with the calm?
Color there,
Color where?
So fast, running together
Sounds and sights
Pressed into one
White line,
Curving,
Carved around
Space, a fresh
Start, waiting
Until the next dance.
