The purple glow of indigo, the gleam of green and gold
The splendor of a sunrise, the dazzle of a flame
The glory of a rainbow, I'd put 'em all to shame
No quiet browns and grays, I'll take my days instead
And fill them till they overflow with rose and cherry red
And should this sunlit world grow dark one day
The colors of my life will leave a shining light to show the way.
