Black

It was all black
so we lit a candle

we placed it on the table
and sat by it quietly

for the wonderful joy
of watching the flame.

White

In the middle of the orange
there was yellow

In the middle of the yellow
there was white

a white so pure
that it stands out

and it stands up
in a way

that you can't strike it
like you do
a man with your fist.

Charmed

I've long admired the forest
been in awe

Charmed

It knows everything
It's seen the darkest hour
it doesn't have an address
it's got no heirs
and no bills to pay

It has no fear.
