LIFE'S HUES
I hold the kaleidoscope to the light
Colors that were dull suddenly become bright.
I turn and turn and turn again
All the colors start to blend
each pattern shows a different view
Displaying every brilliant hue.
It starts out with just red and green
Then is added colors I have never seen.
A hint of violet, a touch of blue
A spray of pink and I am glued.
Sometimes I see silver and gold
some are faded and some are bold.
I think life is like a Kaleidoscope
Never the same as we hope
Each spin alters the way we feel
Colors will change from day to day
Sometimes they may be bright
Sometimes they may be grey.
It does not matter how they are blended
What shapes are formed or how they are ended.
We try to mix them the best way we can
It may not be what we intended
Maybe there are ways it could be mended.
But I feel there is always hope
while viewing life's Kaleidoscope.

lovely colors and true that life changes with every spin and even sometimes it changes us also, our attitude opinions everything.
I tried about 4 times last night to get in here to comment, never got in for some reason. Glad I am in now. Wanted to tell you that Trisha got accepted into Chapel Hill y'day, we are so excited! :D
Beautiful poem. Whatever color life is we have to deal with anyway. They are still colors, might as well enjoy them than hoping for better colors of our choice and getting disappointed when we don't get it, eh? :))))
Keshi..thank you.yes keshi some are gloomy and some are bright.we have to make the best of every hue.

Brought back memories of when I was a kid. I used to marvel over how the colors could mix and change just by turning the framework. I bought them for my kids so they could enjoy what I had enjoyed. Poem discribes it well.
Hugs, Dot
