Lavender-Grey

I looked into light,
and I found color
where grey was.

Does light take grey
and warm it up with color,
like singers wake vocal chords
before the song?

Is every song grey
warmed over to lavender?

And if life is a song,
is dull life lavender
when the sun shines in?

This feature of Kelly Sauer’s Lavender-Grey is part of the collaborative color writing and photo project hosted by TheHighCalling (see Claire’s Royal Colour Watch) and Tweetspeak’s Cataloging the Color of Your World.
