The colours of my life ....

The colours of my life
Are bountiful and bold,

The purple glow of indigo,

The gleam of green and gold

The splendor of the sunrise,

The dazzle of a flame,

The glory of a rainbow,

I'd put 'em all to shame.

No quiet browns and grays,
I'll take my days instead

And fill them till they overflow
With rose and cherry red!

And should this sunlit world
Grow dark one day,

The colours of my life
Will leave a shining light

To show the way...
