A Grey World

This grey on grey world around me
All colour has been extracted
Giving weird sensations to see
Objects crisper, nothing distracted

Grey skies intermittent with clouds
Hang over a greyish landscape
Every thing`s still there in detail
Crystal clear in every shape

Even though devoid of colour
There are different greys to behold
Warmth is still felt here through the streets
As the sun`s rays heat up the cold

Grey curtains hang in grey windows
Dark grey shadows hide in places
Black car parked by grey cobble stones
As children play with smiling faces

Music is heard from a distance
A steady beat is felt throughout
Colour doesn't change anything
Love life, that`s what it`s all about


Black, white or grey, they are only colours, what matters is how we live our lives.....
