The Colorless

Mugsdaddy

the absence of color means not absence of beauty or Grace 

Case in Point look to the Stars way up in space 

Love has no color yet is beautiful in life 

Where is the color between man and wife 

Closing your eyes makes the world turn black 

But only if imagination is something you lack 

Look to a gray sky on a slow rainy day 

Even without color it's perfect that way 

So look to the world without color tearing us apart 

See people just as people that's a Fine Place to Start.

          Colour is just a label
          Your invite to the table
          We were naked, now we dress
          so we are not colourless

                Yes agreed wholeheartedly with your sentiment and its beyond shame that theres such valid need to keep repeating it. You say it well! Again the words of Max Ehrmann from 'Desiderata' ring out in my mind "You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here."

                  Wow. Thank you for such praise I am grateful for such insight.
