The Story Untold


The world is colorful,

Oh so colorful,

Vibrant hues light up

The dawn sky.

 

the world is

colorful

oh so

colorful

(then why

can I

only see

in black

and white)

 

The world is lively,

Oh so lively,

Butterflies dance,

In the morning light.

 

the world is

lively

oh so

lively

(then why

do the butterflies

only dance

in my mind)

This is a very delicate and beautiful piece. I love the use of repetition...very effective.
