THE SIGHT OF AUTUMN…
- A Villanelle
I’m red-green colour-blind -
‘colour challenged’ be it said.
You think I’ll be left behind
when a palette as unkind
as Autumn’s rears its head.
I’m red-green colour-blind
so russets must incline
to nothing much instead?
You think I’ll be left behind.
But in my canopy of mind
bright green is received as red.
I’m red-green colour-blind
but I see green enshrined
in brown that, to you, is dead.
You think I’ll be left behind
by October leaves, yet I find
their charm uncomplicated.
I’m red-green colour-blind.
You think I’ll be left behind.
