Colours of Love

Sometimes I wonder 
What should be the colour of love? 
Colours like red, blue, green all occupied
Yellow, brown and pink all well defined
Is it a colour which no eyes have seen! 
Or is it that mind never perceived
I saw the colour of love in different shades
When a mother held her child 
The colour was caress
When father held it became protection
When teacher held 
It became learning
When he went with lover 
It became sensual
When he grew old 
It became wisdom
I saw through the prism of life
all the shades of love.
