What are the colours of the mind
what are the shades when one is being kind
how bright are the hues, when reflecting of you
a myriad, I think when they are of me and of you
explore then your thoughts
and correlate
can you see now the rainbow
the sparkle inside
how it echoes and fuses
with things tangible and surreal
look now and see this fountain
as it rises and fall and spirals
the purples, and greens,
the yellows and blues
mixes of reds and whites
even black
now fushias and golds
with browns and silvers
see them radiate
and stir and wash together
collide, and split
and bounce
with wonderment
watch as they infuse one with the other
like memories they embrace
and enfold us
the comfort and confront us
provoke and evoke within us
the longings,
the hopes,
the dreams
memories are Colours of the mind
