Solving The Universe

We giggled while painting
each others toenails
and life's deepest questions
were solved with
a different colour
on each one.

But now the colours bleed
and the hues

are inscrutable
and uncertain.

This is gorgeous, how perfect this is for the prompt, life was so much simpler in the days when that was the worst we had to deal with. Best to you in the contest
