Colors to my Eyes


I dream in colors of azure and emerald green. I dream in colors of the sunset. I hold memories in my mind and look to the sky… the comfort of autumn leaves are around me…

I fly with wings and scan the sky to admire the deep blues and grays that whisper below …I swim in the aurora…

I talk with my loved ones in quiet rooms of my childhood… I reflect in the image of the golds and yellows of the comfortable table lamp in my grandfather’s home…

I dream in swirls of color… they surround my mind… they surround my vision… color pulls my attention from conversation… backgrounds become foreground…

I question when I feel the blacks and whites creeping to the corners of my mind… the burning edges of toil's parchment... I seek out a laughter moment… I smile the colors back to my eyes…
