~ Food and Colour ~
Many different plants will furnish
daily food an insect needs;
But it always takes the colour
from the leaf on which it feeds.
Christians often from the Bread of heaven
turn to earthly fare,
But a little change of colour--to their shame--
they always wear.
If on Christ, the Lamb, we're feeding,
we'll present a heavenly blue,
But the tastes of earthly follies
change us to another hue.

Hmmm...what colour (love that British spelling!) would I be? I suppose I would diverge from the heavenly blue just a bit, if only so I could head over into the purples and become my favorite shade:
periwinkle

Though, if my hue were to reflect what earthly food I eat the most, I would probably be the color of McDonald's. Aren't their french fries the best?
