mix all colors, you’ll get black,
mix day’s long hours, you’ll get dusk,
what should I mix, to get you back?

Very good question. I think each moment has unique colours, shades, tints, and you can’t go back to a shade or tint of colour that had been. You have to paint something anew. Lovely lines!

Wouldn’t it be great if mixing color and time created love? Attractive, thought-(and-heart-)provoking verse, Rosema.

I would say faith and hope mixed with positive thoughts might do the trick. I love the depth of sadness in this piece, Rosema.

Mix none. 😀 Just as the presence of all color is black, the absence of it, is white. A clean slate. A blanks space of endless possibilities. A chance to start anew? 😀

Did you know that black is not a color but the absence of color?? Hence us without feelings, without love, are lacking!
