Hues, shades, tones,

A cast of colors, each their own

Tincture, Tint, Tinged light

To the viewer, a blessed sight

Matters not the name

Matters little the shade in which it came

All that means, is what shape that hue’s to take

When describing the picture the eyes make

Perhaps a reversion to fundamentals should be

Refract, refine, reflect and shine

Burden of the amalgam

For what one sees

Often is confluent

Blending vision with perception

And oftentimes, the perceptions are skewed

For what you see, is always right to eyes, but what is true to you,

May not be a Truism through, as what mind’s see might not always be the color of truth.

 Thought I'd get a bit colorful for OLN at D'Verse tonight.  Head on over and check out the really great work submitted.  Each week so far has been amazing and with each week more and more poets are contributing making Tuesday Nights the single best night for Poetry anywhere.
