Colour of Words
Selected Poem:
HAVE YOU EVER
Have you ever thought
that the blind
have no colour prejudices,
and the deaf care
not for speeches,
etc.,
but even lacking our five
over-rated senses,
people have a choice
to hate
or
to love.
Bernice Lever (c) 1979
{Yet Woman I Am - first collection of my own
poems}
