I must replay the world around me

My colours bathe your eyes in rainbow hue

Each piece of life becomes a thousand

Each moment making for a whole new picture

I see the lilies on the pond myriad times

And each time is the first time come again

Though my world darkens

My mind and heart are still ablaze with light

I paint and paint my garden

And each depiction is a brand new day

For I do not show you what you see for yourself

But only the impressions that reach my heart

through the kaleidoscope of my eyes
