Poem Commentary

Delivery at the end of rainbows?

Saved By A Rainbow

Black like Alpha and like our primary origin

White is not Always Right ‘cept in Blinding Light

Yellow warms lands for multitudes for all ages

Green is what we spend and how we breathe

Brown is the ground and is always ‘round

Blue is the sky that is clear in infinite possibilities

Red is my internal body of liquid, necessary to sustain life

Purple is the passion that signifies desires projected

Gold is sometimes permeable, most times solid

A rainbow abounds me and surrounds me for knowledge

Differentiated by my mental picture and prejudices in being

Knowledge of just one color is an incomplete anthropology

Ofcourse there is always a hierarchy as to which came first

Causing wars from endings to right this moment beginning

That should not be the 21st century hue-man’s main concern

Kaleidiscoped learning is now the greatest universe-to-see

Melding, blending, circular twirling and swirling, world without end

Existing for millions of stars in skies viewed from billions of “I”(s)

Color blind ness is acute and never fatal and is the oldest fable

Myriads of combinations generating good news for the multi-hues

So smile and greet your different colors with respect and reflect

So an Alpha to Omega, Black to White, is a cycle to be measured

All in the grand course of time, as differences combine to make sense

And we are all renewed, increasing our belief in being Saved by a

Rainbow

 

PEACE

This is a good piece...I like how you broke down color by color and gave them all different meanings, It was a very insightful piece and the theme fit dead on in this one. I appreciate being able to read this one for sure.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
