Sometimes you shine like the red

Of a setting sun in the evening sky.

Another time I have to look precisely

To perceive you at all,

Like a watery sky-blue,

In an exchange of sun and clouds.


Sometimes your outer appearance

Is even changeable, like a chameleon,

Trying to deceive its environment.


Then again, you seem

To radiate something of all colors,

Like a puzzle

Wanting to be assembled

To make sense.


Often, however, you provide all colors at the same time

And leave a colorful variety of iridescence to be recognized,

Enchanting everyone.

In a word, 'WOW!' I love this poesy for so many reasons, but the first of all is that i can relate to it. Honestly, i'm sure everyone can.

The second reason is that it reads like a Van Gogh poem, not to say that he ever wrote one, cause idk, but your poem limns colors and shows how each contrast by associating them with a person's behavior. Which is amazing all by itself! But it also reminds me of what V. Van Gogh said, “To understand blue you must first understand yellow and orange.”

The third reason is that you said it all perfectly, putting it in the right words and right amount of words! Very well done!!!!
