Life works in funny ways. Rainfall makes us dance, yet dampens our eyes. There is nothing as beautiful as the first snowfall, yet it brings a sorrowful darkness. Feelings are tricky, but make you stronger. Envelop yourself in the wonder of emotion. Embrace all the shades of life...

the shades of being YOU.

Canada. India.

Shades of Life

I moved from one place to another,

Life flashing by in the sparkling lights.

Lost in a crowd unknown,

Yet buzzing with a similar energy.

Music pulsing through the world around,

Words foreign to my mind but one with my heart.

There are many faces,

But we are aliens to one another.

They try to call me,

But I have no name.

From everywhere,

Yet I belong nowhere.

My soul has found its home

In the ever-changing colours of the sky.
