Title: These Three Colors
Post by: Ravizza on July 17, 2004, 04:10:22 PM
These Three Clorors
I look down and see them
I look up and see them
Everywhere, even in the dark of night
I can feel there light.

When people die I see them
When people are born I see them

When I feel dead and gone inside, there they are.
In myself, they stretch deep and far.

They are a part of me as much are they are a part of you
They aren't the red white and blue
They aren't just for me-
On the Ethiopian flag they flew

I feel them when bad news comes, and I lay awake in bed

Green, gold, and red.

-DR

it is good to know that something so small like flag can have such a great affect on someone . nice work putting your work into feelings.
