Beautiful Colors

The world is quite peaceful,
With my head down in the sand.
It's cool and it's quiet here,
no need to understand
Life's great mysteries,
seeing only shadows of reality.
So I lift my head to the world,
and I'm blinded by the light.

If you see the world in black and white,
you're missing out on all the beautiful colors.

Dark and light, wrong and right,
May or might, and all the rest.
If you keep on traveling to the east,
You'll end up west.
Your paradigms are affected,
When you see it's all connected.
You embrace both heart and mind
in seeking what you find.

You have no idea my son.
Your journey's just begun.
If you look with eyes wide open,
you realize the world wonders,
and you are not alone.

The world is quite full of wonder,
with my head out of the sand.
