World of Colors--By Maricris Cabrera--Philippines

World of Colors

Imagine the world
without colors; gloom
dry, dull
dead and doom.
Colors are created
for all of us to see
endless horizon
and the deep blue sea.
Green trees, blooming flowers
birds in the sky
fishes under the water
even the shimmering sunset, oh my!
I love lots of colors
my summer dress would be yellow
dashing, glamorous
shoulders glow.
Colors make us happy
like red apples, lips of a baby
and the sparkling lights around the Christmas tree
family surround, cheering merrily.

  4. Color creates and ignites excitement. It creates joy and gives life to photographs. It lives on as part of our memories and the colors survive in our memories long after the image has passed in real life. Color gives us feeling, meaning, emotions, passion and is part of what makes life the joy that it is. Bravo Maricris! Thank you for imagery that reminds us of the value of color in our lives. :)
