RIBBONS OF COLOR, SWIRLS OF WHITE Author: Sally Omar

Ribbons of Color
Swirls of White
She wore them in her hair
Only at night
Once the evening
Would appear
Ribbons of Color, Swirls of White
Would pull back her hair
She looked in the mirror
And closed her eyes
Held her breathe
And let out a sigh
She could not wait
To see his face
She was dressed
In pure white lace
He always loved
The ribbons in her hair
When they first met
She had them there
Their love never changed
Although the years past
They remained the same
That is why their love did last
She loved to wear
Ribbons of Color, Swirls of White
Reminding them
That their love was always right

Thank you, Sally, for such a lovely poem,
