colour my world

11/24/2012

the quilt of life is woven
with friends, family and new joys,
with happiness and sunshine,
brilliant bulbs and buds,
springtimes and spritely children,

with love and warmth,
thanks and hope -
life has colour,
difference,
brilliance,

so let me have the chance
to live an inwardly iridescent life,

to begin the journey
toward a colourful world.

colour my heart with a rainbow,
expressing hope and love for all

paint understanding on my tongue,
compassion on my lips.
never let me forget,
my neighbour deserves respect and equality -
no matter the law.

colour my world
with diverse expression.

colour my world
with the hope of a better tomorrow
for all peoples
of all backgrounds.

colour outside the lines,
beyond black and white,
embrace the greys,
for a more beautiful world.

colour my friends,
my school,
my community

colour my town,
my region,
my government

colour my time zone,
my nation,
my continent

then,

colour my world.
