Why do you say that your color is white?

When I can see that you are blue,

Spoke one who saw herself as being green,

But, who was a yellowish hue.

Then snapped someone who had thought himself red

But who was in fact nearly black,

He shouted, “None of you are the color

That you claim to be as a fact!”

So red, green, black and the yellowish too

Accused each other through the night,

And came the sunrise not one of them knew

That each had missed seeing the Light.
