"Good Hope"ful Creation

When He created,
He splashed most
of the blue
and gave it waves;
undulating brown
and snowy white
reaching up
to the sky;
Colors and Smells
competing
for attention
in a flower
and fruit rich world.
Green valleys,
gold of the lion,
tiger in yellows,
stately grey elephants.




Tired,
after
an Era of creation,
He rested,
looked down His eyelids
and noticed
a set of uncolored young ones
frisking around
near places of Good Hope.

He dipped into
the remnant colors,
saying,
"Wait! be still,
else you will be all white..."
But the young
frisky ones,
danced
against the brushes,
getting grand streaks
in black,
saying,
"Don't know about you,
but we're Mandelian,
and
we really enjoy
being
both black and white...
and now,
if you excuse us,
we will cross the road !
