I Found a Rainbow — a poem of discovering
A Decuain
I grew up in a world of black and white
Where light illuminated shades of grey.
I did not realize I was uptight
Until I found myself going astray.
I wandered off the straight and narrow way,
And found a rainbow waiting there for me.
I stopped to smell the roses in bouquet,
Found countless flowers far as I could see.
I wander through the fields, lost in delight;
I left behind the bleak, embraced the bright.
