Ode to Colors

Red, yellow, and pink flowers

nestled in the soft green grass

against a cloudless blue sky.

Imagine a world without 

all the colors of the rainbow.

A world with only black, white, and gray. 

I am thankful for the colors

that light up a world,

a world that would otherwise be boring. 

I am thankful for

the bright green leaves in spring

that turn red, orange, and yellow in autumn.

I am thankful for 

the ocean with a gradient from

almost purple to a vibrant teal.

I am thankful for the colors

that give us a chance

to be unique.
