Wonder Vision

I put on the eyes that see colors

that see the depth and hue of shifting sky

That see the glow of things reflected off each other

Enchanting golds and oranges

softly warming planes and curves

Satisfying turn of shade

gracefully adorning trunks of trees

The colors stay with me when I close my eyes

Now free to recombine

like wind-tossed clouds

or frothing ocean foam

swirling and shifting

Now serving to refine

my understanding

of how the universe

breathing and lifting

gives  wonder to the vision of my days.
