COLOR SPLASHED<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\n

There was a time,
\nnot so very long ago,
\nwhen the colors
\nof the rainbow
\nwere completely
\nhidden from sight;
\nI simply couldn’t see
\nall the beauty in life;
\nblinded as I was
\nto what was right
\nin front of me.
\nEvery day seemed
\nexactly the same
\nas it was the day before,
\nlittle joy to speak of;
\nthe thrill had dissipated,
\neach day just bit more strife. <\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em> <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

And then I finally decided
\nthat I had had quite enough
\nand made a huge change,
\nreclaiming my time,
\nand my life,
\nand the me
\nwho had somehow
\ngotten lost in the gray
\nof life’s days.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em> <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

And in a relative instant
\nI began once again to see
\nthe colors of the rainbow
\nthat had begun to elude me.
\nThe gray of my days
\nburst into rainbowed colors
\nso vibrant and clear,
\nas though never having left me
\nas I had begun to fear.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em> <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

And as I look out
\nupon this world
\nthrough these eyes
\nthat had begun to overlook
\nwhat had been there all along,
\nI marvel at God’s handiwork,
\nthe colors of the rainbow,
\nthe ever-changing blues
\nof sea and sky,
\nthe vibrant greens
\nof grass and trees,
\nthe golden sun,
\nthe rich brown earth,
\nthe reds and pinks
\nin the gardens I see.
\nAnd as this new day
\nbegins to unfold,
\nI can only be thankful
\nfor what I can now behold.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n
