Red is our colour

Red is our colour
The world is seen
in different ways
through different eyes
at different times

The world is viewed
in different colours
bathed in different lights
and difference shines

we share the world
we are the same
bright eyes look out
during the day

We dream at night
of hopes and desires
thoughts grasped
hidden by our closed lids

Infinite world of colour
our blood the same
pumping red
hot rich in life
cold thick in death
