White

Dylan Sherman

White is the color ofBeautiful

Like a doveSoaring over a forgotten mountain lakeSnowBlanketing the landscapeIn a soft whiteParadiseEssence of pine

Like a cello’s musicSweeping the nightAloneBut that makes it even moreSerene

Like a white sailRising up a mastAgainst a coral blue seaWaving aboutTakingYou there

Like a patchOf white rosesAmong the ashesThe startOf new life
