The Colorblind

A poem for deep gratitude

Let the colorblind remind us the delicacy of life

in its beauty

in its eternalness

Let them remind us the fragility of time

in its constancy

in its permanence

Let the infinite variations of colors

set hope upon the quarrels of human life

For every fruit, tree, sunset and sky

has a flush only He from above shall cast beneath this Earth

I recently watched a wonderful YouTube video of a man trying on colorblind glasses for the first time. It was the way he looked at the bright little berries that I was suddenly moved by the thought of our existence. It's easy to lose sight of the colors we see every day, including those that Mother Nature has in store for us. I hope this poem awakens a deep desire to appreciate them again.
