Colours

Have you ever touched the gold of the sun,
Or the blue of the moon?
Have you ever caught the grasses' green,
Or grasped the spots of the loon?
Can you sing to the red of the flowers,
Or smile to the white of the dove?
Have you ever laughed with the mountain tops,
Or watched a wolf fall in love?
How long has it been since you painted the sunset,
How long since you coloured the snow?
How long has it been since you stood still,
And let yourself fall into the rainbow?

  1. Wonderful wonderful use of colours and the images are as vivid as the colours:
    Have you ever laughed with the mountain tops,
    Or watched a wolf fall in love?

    Oh to see a wolf fall in love!
