Before reading this astonishing poeme, I thought black was blue, that black was grey, that black was the color of sunlight and that if black was your color, you were wrong. Now I realise that those things just aren't true! Thanks ivoryangie1! Perhaps now I can get on with my life, free from the baggage of such predjudices.

add 'nd' to the 'a' between big and strong. Keep being proud.

nice freeform--perhaps mislabeled as haiku?
