I like the picture of colors. I love colors too. Life can be colorful too.

You have described colors well and associated with what you feel too. My favorite color is red. It may sound silly but to me, it rings me luck. In reality, it sometimes brings me luck. In fact, it is the confidence that I have when I wear something red.

Thanks for sharing "Colors" with us.

    Red is a favorite color of mine as well! It is a confident color and I wear it when I am feeling bold. Thank you for the six star review I am humbled and for thanks sharing your thoughts with me.

It is not just you who feels this way. I understand how you feel. Sometimes I don't want to get out of bed. You can take a shower. In the shower, I seem to do most of my thinking.

When I write, I release so much from my mind. I have written about so much that has not been revealed. Getting up is something we have to force ourselves to do. Gathering energy is difficult.

You will gain energy once you start moving around. It doesn't matter how short it is. Walk around your house. Inside or outside.

In one moment, I am elated, and the next, I am depressed. My hopes will be high, then I'll feel like digging a hole. My mind changes with the flip of a dime. The mind can become a lonely place.

Thank you for sharing. Take care. Writing has helped me. I have been writing daily since December, 2021.

You may have bipolar disorder which sometimes gets the best of You but not herein as I found this piece rather understandable even though it was a mishmash of this and that which I willingly submit to.

Your contest entry read well, Ramona, though it's poignant.
Your words were well chosen from experience--something
many will never feel. Your lines flowed smoothly with great
descriptions.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

Ramona, I suffer from bipolar also, so I can definitely relate to your poem. When im manic I am truly happy, but when im depressed my life is rough. I tried to commit suicide 6 years ago. Even though my mind sometimes experiences inner chaos, or blackness as you describe it, I want very much to live my boring uneventful life. I hope you find joy in writing, and in the small things of life.
You are an excellent writer!
Blessings,
Good luck,
Cindy

    Cindy, to a fellow traveler. You understand perfectly where I am coming from. I too have tried to take my own life in the past and yes I struggle with the dark. My writing does sustain me through and thankfully most days are good as you say. Thank you for the compliment. I take refuge in my writing. It gets me through the bad days and I write joyfully on the good ones. I?ve read your work and you too are an excellent writer so I am flattered, your review means a lot. Blessings to you as well.

This is a very well written Free Verse poem you have penned. You used very good descriptive words telling about the colors. The imagery you chose goes very well with your words. I am so sorry you are bipolar. It has to be hard for you at times. I have a disease called MS and it messes with the brain also! Best wishes in the contest. love and blessings, Teri

The author's words are expressed well, are clear, descriptive and creative. Thank you so much for the author's notes - may you find peace. Purple
is one of my favorite colors too! I thought about bad days in my life and I try to think of something positive or what I am grateful for. The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome!

This free verse, Colors, begins with all the positive aspects of colors, which represent, I imagine, the goodness in our world. Sometimes enough sucky days show up to have a bad effect on our generally good mood.
