Viewpoint

We live in worlds
Surrounded by shades of grey
And levels of darkness and light
Revealed only by what we are told

We live in worlds
Like bubbles or jars
Swinging ‘tween sunrise and sunset
Where our experiences and thoughts
Determine the brightness
On our horizons

How bright the glow
How large the bubble
How high we swing
Are all set
Within the worlds we live

    Great words TL…Well said. Liked the picture as well…Yes, thoughts are sacred as they form our realities and it is up to us how light or dark they will be… I choose rainbows….VK 🙂

      Rainbows are a good choice, VK. The brighter, the better!

        While we’re at it why not a few solar flares? That should be bright 🙂

            It might get a little sketchy with those flares going off inside the bubble!

              Although that rather depends on the size of the bubble! 😉😁
