about colors

about colors

So pale the rosebush on the verandah
is it because the night is so long and cold
the flowers look like the red purses
little girls have a few pennies in
kept hidden for her brother, a few 
pennies to buy sweets for
I have lost the colors on my computer
it is gray, the spirit will not soar 
like it didn't when I wanted to be a parachutist 
I will visit the computer man 
to bring colors back, even if it is artificial 
and exude no aroma
the little girl sits at the back of the garage
furtively eat candy, but feel guilty 
she should have shared the sweets 
with her annoying brother, after all, she is
his big sister
In her hair, a red Gansho
