All The Colors Of The Rainbow!
Sometimes, we are ragingly angry
and want so much to place blame.
Sometimes, we are wildly desiring
and then want more of the same.
Sometimes, we are totally willful
so we can finally get things done.
Sometimes, we are gently heartfelt
so that we ultimately do no wrong.
Sometimes, we are daringly vocal
in order to just speak our peace.
Sometimes, we are so mindful
in order to attain being at ease.
Sometimes, we are self-loving
about the feelings we can show.
Then, sometimes, we express
All The Colors Of The Rainbow!
-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Small All White in the Forest)
"I am no barrier to its sun; the light and I are as one!"
My Poetic Notes:
The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: "All The Colors Of The Rainbow" are the Chakras—or the Energy Centers of the Human Body: 'anger' is red; 'desire' is orange; 'will' is yellow; 'heart' is green; 'voice' is blue; 'mind' is purple; 'self-love' is pink, since there are seven Chakras! And 'all the colors' combined are represented in their totality by white.
And you will notice that the Chakras are, in fact, the colors of a rainbow, because they represent The Light Of God (which is a white light, literally like the light of the stars in the universe, including the sun of our solar system) divided into its individual aspects—in the same way that a rainbow is sunlight divided into the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and pink through the prism of rain water droplets.
Just so you know, I revised this poem, as I often do with my writing! And I changed how this poem was written when I was editing it on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer," "Small All White in the Forest" and "Three Dark Horses" blogs. So, I wanted to show you how this poem used to be written, before I revised it as above.
And it used to be written like this:
All The Colors Of The Rainbow!
Sometimes, we are ragingly angry
and want so much to place blame.
Sometimes, we are wildly desiring
and then want more of the same.
Sometimes, we are totally willful
so we can finally get things done.
Sometimes, we are gently heartfelt
so that we ultimately do no wrong.
Sometimes, we are daringly vocal
in order to just speak our peace.
Sometimes, we are so mindful
in order to attain being at ease.
Sometimes, we are self-loving
about the feelings we can show.
Then—sometimes—we can express
All The Colors Of The Rainbow!
Thus, I revised this poem to be written as it is above.
And this poem was also published on my "Three Dark Horses" and "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blogs (please see the hyperlinks below for the blogs), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message I am trying to convey through "Three Dark Horses" and "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer." Plus, I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message I am trying to convey through my new "The Oneness Of God" spiritual practice!
This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.
