Analysis of New Colors Rising
Colors they were once so few,
with shades I then thought vast,
many more are colors new,
now is not the past.
All these colors I do see,
many in my mind,
all my rainbows are of many,
colors I do find.
Prisms are of many lights,
shining through to me,
many colors have been added,
what a sight I see.
We all see so many colors,
our minds they hold more,
dull to bright, I love them all,
like rainfall, colors pour.
