A Beautiful World
The color BLUE looked at the open sky and said,
"I'm okay with others, but you were made for me".
The color BROWN observed all around and commented,
"What remains of the water and greenery is meant for me.
You find me on the ground you walk on; the mountains you climb".
In addition, she said, "I am she who paints the foliage of Fall".
Striped from trees in the heart of Winter and cold as ice,
the color of GREEN uttered passionately, "Yes, I went away,
but I am still breathing, and come next Spring you shall clearly
see me arise and shine, convincing all that indeed, I am alive".
Lastly, the color ORANGE stood erect and demanded an audience.
She said, "Forget me not, for I am locked into the sun and moon.
Have you ever stared at my effect upon a rainbow in the watery canopy?
And my sunset hues are overwhelming enough to take one's breath away".
