COLOR THE DARK

 

COLOR THE DARK

 

She lives, breathing deep

Her colors flowing while we sleep

Dancing, alive, whimsical luminosity

We watch, fascinated and strive

 

To fathom the reality cherishing hues

Ever splitting into tendrils glowing

Sputtering sounds of popping clues

Tubes of effervescent bouquet

 

Transforming the night into iridescent day

We are transformed in flickering play

As the neon lines glow blazing

Bringing light and life to a dying city

Are you talking of Reno or Las Vegas? I believe, both, will feel the crunch of the eastern casino boats; and, their lives will change, forever. I think that we should have respected their life-style there and not made this change. Gambling, night-life, marriage, etc. was their life blood. What have we left them with. An economy failing, even in a city of lights! Great write!!
