The Reason Why Colours Make Out

When colours merge with
no discernible edges
and bleed into each other,
the way they appear
here through the windows
of my man-cave ..
Take note and be sure to
make time to
drink each one of them in ..
For something
brand new and so close to
perfection, is soon
to be birthed here again ..
And whilst unable
to stop or to quell all these
joyful tears from
forming upon the reverse
of my dry lenses ..
A freshly water-coloured
vista in well
warmed pastels, damp as
my very own
two cheeks and as cool
as morning dew then emerges ..
Yes another day
is crafted and like so many
flawless predecessors ..
It remains only as
a brief, unframed, unsung
and unsigned
masterpiece, traced lightly
across my personal horizon ..
And together, we named
that briefest of moments, Dawn ..

Neville, you wrote here a stunning poem. I shouldn't be surprised, I read your 
book and I know what you're capable, but this poem just hit me & stirred my imagination to the point that I can see the colours. And what I had was just a cup coffee. Know what I mean?  B
