Diversity



      Diversity
          by Sarah Elizabeth Hume

    Oceans of deep azure
    enveloped in alluring gold,
    await in silence,
    deep ebony.
    Celestial lovers dance on balmy winds.

    Softly whispers a breathless kiss,
    darkening waves of purple flow,
    because of them the stars are born.

    Flames of indifference,
    blind to shades of dawn and dusk.
    Dimly lit lanterns
    guiding ships to safe havens.

   For love is the color of all things,
    ivory dipped in pools shadow,
    a rose without a hint of blush.

   And a touch of flesh is sweet and soft
   whether graced by night or day.
