If Hope had a color
it would be the many shades of pink
one for every type of Hope we hold
even the ones that are deep.

Hope colored ribbons
that make women cry
and Hope colored daisies
we pray will never die.

If Joy had a color
it would be the many shades of green
like every growing child
who loves to hum and sing.

Joy colored seeds
becoming great mighty trees
and Joy colored feelings
entering our memories.

If Freedom had a color
it would be the many shades of blue
soothing and restoring
all the destruction that we knew.

Free colored birds
soaring high in the sky
and Free colored voices
sounding our cries.

If Passion had a color
it would be the many shades of red
vibrant to dull
it really knows no end.

Passion colored lips
to kiss the ones we love
and Passion colored dreams
we hold dear to us.

If Friendship had a color
it would be the brightest shade of yellow
to pierce the darkened path
and reveal it's wondrous power.

Friendship colored hugs
when your day was not just right
and Friendship colored laughs
to cure our wounded souls.

If fear had a color
it would be the dullest shade of orange
radiating like fire
when you least want it around.

fear colored wishes
that may or may not come true
and fear colored highs
that may fall all too soon.

If sadness had a color
it would be the darkest shade of black
so we may see the light within
which we often think we lack.

sad colored emptiness
we feel needs to be filled
and sad colored nights
when the sky cowers behind the clouds.

Through the blackness
a little yellow Friendship shines through
giving us bright pink Hope
in an orange filled world.

Blue Freedom gives us green-green Joy
that all our reddest Passions
will come true
before the world turns to darkness again.
