I'm just about to dazzle you!
Sizzle you!
Frazzle you!
Just about to blind you with my glorious light!
In a second I'll be glimmering!
Shattering!
Shimmering!
How lucky you could catch me looking calm and white!

GREY BEAUTY
Were this flower red we would gaze at its redness,
Viewing its colour with wonder and awe.
Were this flower gold we would gaze at its goldness
Describing as 'brilliant' the colour we saw.
But this flower is grey so we notice its pattern,
The curves of the petals, the stripes and the shade,
The jewel at the centre, the sheen and the shimmer!
Colourless, what a design it has made!
