The colours of the rainbow handed down by Iris
Washes its brilliance across the heavens,
Infusing energy into the chakras that govern my body,
Balancing the Deadly Sins and Virtues,
Just like a bundle of sticks in uniform unison
That teaches me how to live day after day...
This powerful magical number is music to my ears...
