Red is red and green is green
And yellow’s another colour
Black changes not, if white declared
Nor even the reverse order
But, what if I don’t know red’s red
Never perceived green’s green
Will colour’s substance, behaviour change
If my ignorance is seen?
Colours will invigorate
Stimulate, enliven;
Or overwhelm, engulf, beset
No matter what I call them
Black makes the white so radiant
White shows the black so stark
And Love reveals all that is not
Of Love; all that is dark
Love is love, as Love declares
What love will always be
To give His name to something else
Won’t change that Love is He
