before we were together

my poor blood would just run red

but now it runs in scarlet

or a crimson hue instead

the sky that loomed above me

was a boring shade of blue

it's now lapis lazuli

and a shade of azure, too

the grass that grew between my toes

was just a green, so plain

now i perceive it's celadon

or kelly, i'll explain

the sun that shines up in the sky

once yellow, plain as day

but now it's clearly golden

for your love has shown the way

you've rearranged my rainbow

weeded out the black and white

and we wrap each other's rainbows

in the dreams we weave at night

Yet another beautifully written poem from you Alvin.

Very much enjoyed as always.
