The Gallery part 3

In the room of wishes
Each wall is a white shadow
Lined by dark light
Arranged in patterns
Outlining only the possibilities
Of lines and curves and shapes
The dark colors slowly changing
According to the wishes
The spectators make
To children, the colors turn vibrant
And are dancing with the shapes
Hand in hand and cheek to cheek
To the parents, the colors are neutral
Shades forming standard shapes
Of labels, sales, and traffic signs
Safety first for safety's sake
And to the elderly, the light appears
As if a photograph
Of the wishes they used to make
