Grey

Grey.
What’s dull about that?
Grey skies mean rain, the rain that could clean my grimy window pane.
Grey is a color that lets other colors pop.
How like grey,
Just like that to come to a gentle stop. 

Grey is the color of a hound that can be a wonderful pet.
A greyhound is sweet, mild and sensitive,
And gentle instructions work best.
Grey is the shade of a sweater that kept me warm on one cold day.
Who knew it could be so cold,
Smack in the middle of May.

People are grey, seldom black and white,
Grey shows the good light in somebody,
More wrong than right.
Grey means possibilities and the unexplored scene,
Grey is a beautiful stretch,
Of the black and white in between,

See the color in grey,
And rest assured,
At the end of the grey,
There’ll be a rainbow saying VIBGYOR.
