If thoughts could colour our world
then each breath would express
a new hue, discovery a game
of wonder…
But, I sit here, muted
afraid of words too black or white,
afraid I’ll only encounter
sharp edges…
(Tuesdays, I borrow from Twitter @Vjknutson. Image my own)
The contrast between the two stanzas is very effective!

What a beautiful pairing of sentiment and imagery. Yes…words too black and white…starkness and edges. I feel all of that. Thank you, VJ.
