Color

The sun rises

The sun sets

The world spins

The seasons change

Bright blue skies

Become grey 

Snow falls from above 

and blankets the ground

The colors of the world fade

And we focus on the colors of

the people that surround us

But we find

that the colors of these souls

are as grey as the clouds above

and we wonder

Just how much 

does the color of the world

impact the color of our friends

and then, it dawns on us

as bright as the morning sun

That we too

are grey
