This year was painted in blue hues.
Splashes of Red,
flames and blood,
dripping pain!
Bold tones of Black and White!
Who knew,
there were so many shades of Gray?
Only, now and again,
Yellow bursts, breaking
the dull Slate mist of uncertainty,
but always, always,
edged in Black.

Wow this is sooo deep. I love the imagery. I love the word usage. It is very creative. I even feel some emotion to it. Thanks for sharing this and thanks for placing it into the friends reading list. Marry Christmas and Happy New Year
