The Color of Feelings
I awake to a new day
What kind of day is it?

Maybe it's a
yellow day
The sun is warm and shining
It is happy and full of possibilities

Maybe it's a clear
blue day
Comforting and encouraging
My direction clear

Maybe it's a
green day
Angry and frustrating
Feelings rushing to be heard

Maybe it's a
red day
Passionate and heated
Full of intensity, heartbeat quickening

Maybe it's a
pink day
Soft and gentle
Soothingly caressing my body

Maybe it's a
gray day
Sad and depressing
Feelings of gloom overwhelming

Maybe it's an
orange day
Strange and uncertain
The unknown lurking around the corner

Maybe it's a
purple day
Powerful and exhilarating
Yet at the same time safely familiar and nurturing

Maybe it's a
brown day
Boring and usual
Restlessness runs amuck

But usually it's a
rainbow day
Many colors flickering in and out
Many feelings to understand and envelop me
