顏色

白色，白色係制服。
讀中學嗰四年我日日都要著白衫白裤著到驚。
所以呢加大咗白衫就舊唔舊会著下，白裤就奉至唔碰。
白色好容易整污糟，所以我覺得佢嗱喳。

黄色，黄色卑我一种好神聖嘅感觉。
黄色係我細时黄昏嗰陣喺海邊玩嘅颜色。
黄色係佛教。

我好鍾意橙色同紅色，因為和尚啲袈裟都係呢兩個色。
唔知係咪咁，我買咗好多橙色嘅t-shirt嚟著。

橙色係稻田。
我好想退咗休之後做一個種米嘅和尚。

绿色，绿色係陪伴我長大顏色。
绿色係花草樹木。

灰色，灰色係水泥。水泥係高楼大廈。
起咗高楼大廈就取代咗我童年。

Thoughts

What's home? If only they could tell us...
