Untitled - January 19, 2002

Two lifetimes pass in the blink of an eye,
one moment of joy matched by
one moment of sorrow.

Everything is separated by
a before and after -
a world once black and grey
replaced by the many hues
of the rainbow -
both happiness and sadness
cast in blues and reds.

Every sunset remembered
was a wonderful mix
of lush violets and orange.

Everyday passed was bright lit
with golden sunshine
and pale blue skies.

Even as the night sky grew dark,
the white snowflakes
reflected
the myriad of colours.
