VIVID SYNTHESIS
Black
A color
Dark
Rich with nigrescence
Ebon hue
White
Lack of pigment
Neutral
Bleached
Chalky
To most
The contrast between the two is drastic
Pronounced antithesis
Asymmetrical
However
A few see vivid synthesis
Deep purples
Unrestrained violaceous
Fuchsia cerulean swirls
Unique blends of breathtaking complexion
Absence of fine lines
Through eyes of blessed clarity
As do I
Harmony flows within me
No sharp urges nagging
Exertion to always be right
To win is no longer important
I am quite satisfied with simply BEING
Sharing my gifts and opinions
Complexities of my humanness
Intermingle with all who are willing
Those unafraid to drop the walls of ignorant pride
Tell me my friend
What shades do you perceive?
