Colors

ByRick Ellsmore

Yellow glowing

Reflecting how

I feel

On the inside

Her reflection

Wearing dark green

Feeling like home

Wearing like

Christmas emotions

Color

What we wear

Says a lot

Who we are

How we feel

How many

Wear what

Is expected?

Or put

On clothes

Based on

Fitting in?

Stepping into

Our wild selves

Involves finding

Our groove

The vibe

Making us

Freely flow

Joy finds me

In finding

Someone who

Understands this

Having the courage

To live free

In who

They are

Our reflecting

Openness

Freely bouncing

Yellow serving

As a welcome

For others

To listen

That inner

Child desiring

To play
