A World With Footholds : Life

written by Poet : EC


Diving into rainbows
searching for substance and firm foundations
however, finding worlds of no footholds

Sliding through layers of blue, yellow, green, and more
here they are walls and floors of some very talkative colors
all of them yelling about trust and importance
"Stay with me," they say, "take me at signal value"

"Believe that I'm as cool as blue"
"Remember, I'm as passionate as red"
"I'm as frugal as green"
"And I am as yellow and shiny as the sun"

Blocking my ears and eyes I pass by these worlds of colors
looking for a world of substance, a firm foundation,
I end up in a walled in world in grey and brown
"Hello," it says, "Welcome back on planet Earth"
