Colours of life
The white shine
Of white lights
On white tables
With white shrouds
In white rooms
Before white walls
Hidden
Behind grey walls
Out of grey concrete
From grey house
Before the grey clouds
Of a grey sky
Over my grey city
Full of
Black men
Wearing black coats
And black baggage
Filled with black money
Sitting in black cars
In every black night
Fast out of here
On brown routes
Through brown fields
Grown out of brown earth
Brown fruits
Then brown cows
And brown people
To the
Blue waves
Of the blue sea
And the blue sails
At the blue distance
Of a blue horizon
With blue clouds
Over
Green grass
Of green meadows
In green valleys
With green forests
At green slopes
Of green mountains
Suddenly
The colourful wings
Of some colourful butterflies
Upon colourful flowers
In colourful gardens
As colourful spots
In my dream.

An adventure, to follow
stark, cool neutrals
as they morph into
the deepend hues
of sea and land,
and ultimately,
the dream.
A great experience.
