Читать книгу Psalms of Gratitude and Prayer - John J. Brugaletta - Страница 17

Their week is black and white, as if they slid

back every Monday to that wintry scene

before a technicolor screen had bloomed.

They’re cabined also in a meager space,

obeying rules against more room or joy.

But then on Sunday all their lives are changed.

The lawns and Blondie’s dress are green as hope;

the sky above Prince Valiant is pure blue.

Page after page is spread and packed with hues

like flower beds in spring, or bowls of eggs

dyed pink or mauve, yellow or chartreuse

to celebrate the new red blood of life.
