Welcome to the colors of spring!
PROMPT #222
We again have a set of two images this week, to be used singly or jointly as your prompt.


There is no restriction on length or format of the piece. There is no last date either, unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap.
Any post that is found to be offensive, vulgar or something that hurts common sensibilities will not be included. This needs to be a safe space.
Create a post on your blog, and copy-paste the link in Comments. In case you are using a pingback, do check back to see if it has worked.
The feminists, humanists and individualists amongst you are welcome to follow us at

Hi Reena, here a poem I wrote a few years ago ..
Birds of A Feather
to colour us all tanned
black or white
didn’t seem right
even a humorous sight
maybe blue and green
would’ve been a better blight
and I’ve been told orange
is a preferred skin tone
best we have more colours
I’ll go buy the paint drums
toss them together
shaken, not stirred
into one huge cocktail dish
and use a whale-hair paint brush
we’ll all be covered the same
a faded colour purple
like tarnished rain clouds
not too dark
not too proud
not too white
just bright enough
to see the light

Myriad Colours
Day breaks and scatters the ‘black’ night sky,
With pieces of ‘bronze orange’, forging a ‘violet’ dye,
As the Sun, crackles curiously through the gaps,
Hues change from ‘tangerine’ to ‘golden yellow’ laps,
Soon, the Sun is out from hiding,
Cloaks, the Ether with ‘azure blue’ shading,
A rainbow arc, comes forth some days,
A spectrum of seven colours, she displays,
Each colour has a defining trait,
Enhanced, by a contrasting taint,
Nature orchestrates a beautiful symphony,
Blending colours to indulge the world, sweet as honey,
The ‘crimson red’ flowers, adorned with green foliage, creating a riot,
The ‘pink’, ‘purple’ and ‘blue violet’,
Nothing is plain ‘black’ or ‘white’, ‘grey’, is the tone of reasoning,
Bonding of diversity, adds meaning,
Understand, no one colour can rule the world,
A palette of different tinges, gathered in a fold,
Shall bring peace and harmony,
Indeed a colourful symphony.
