There is a beauty in the color brown Which brings to mind the muted light of caring. Earth tones: roots, ground leafmeal, seeds, and soil; Nuts and bark, broad rivers thick with toil; Tree trunks in a clearing, nothing wearing, Yet holding high their single woven crown. For me brown brings to mind your caring eyes, Innocent and gentle as a doe's. Vested in your love, my own love grows; Each thought, each hope, each breath within you lies.
