Colorful

I was white
A colorless soul
when I was born
Some said new life is green
Time passed by
I glided along
Happenings happened
I had been painted on
Some painted me black

removed it with white
giving me grey

Some gave me red
saying love is blind
I went through blues
then I got lots of hues
Now they call me colorful
Who else could remain dull
Spreading the enchantment
I realized
Life is now complete
When before I was only a plain white...

    some see colors thru eyes and some thru words and here u try to see both ways!
    good try for mixing of colors-words.
    but, am not able to get one thing... are these 2 lines are together...
    --I was white
    A colorless soul--.... if so..

    white is not colorless!! .. in fact white is the mixture of all colors; balanced mix of all primary colors; which is very difficult to make/create it manually.. .. only nature can do this.
    may be u had some other meaning/thought behind writing this way....right//

      Thanks Pratibh for dropping by! The white here means something which has not yet been painted with experiences. Like an untouched pure sheet of paper, unmarked ready to be painted...

    Poem gives away your age, the age when you think you have seen it all, been there and done that. Wait...life has more surprises in store
