FAVORITE COLORS

When I was in school and a teacher asked my favorite color
“Blue!” I would quickly say.
But my answer would be quite different if I was asked today.

You see, today I’m more eclectic and my original favorite I must amend…
for now my favorite color is not a color…but a blend.

Sunrise is one of my favorite colors...it always makes me sigh,
how it changes every morning…as it bursts across the sky.

Sunset is another favorite of mine...it flashes a kaleidoscope of light
before it fades away to black…and ushers in the night.

Rainbow is another color I love…because after the heaviest and darkest rains
the sky will clear…and rainbow…is the color that remains.

And so I wonder…

If all the colors of humankind would blend together like nature…
Wouldn’t our acceptance of one another increase?
And wouldn’t that be the most beautiful color…

Perhaps…we’d call it Peace.
