Chameleon

I am a chameleon with a colour-changing skin It matches every mood that I am ever in. When I’ve acted strangely, or said something stupid I am so embarrassed, my face turns to red And if I scream out loud, when I have had a fright My body starts to tremble, and blanches to white. When I am cold and shivering, it takes a different hue My skin goes all goosey, it turns to blue I am a chameleon with a colour-changing mind It matches every mood that you could ever find. When I am filled with envy of something that I have seen My mind succumbs to jealousy, and changes to green If I am flushed with anger, about something that’s been said My temper starts to flame a bright and burning red. Sometimes, I’m sad and lonely, when I’m missing you I feel so dejected, I go a gloomy blue. I am a chameleon with many colours to show They reflect my every mood, as feelings come and go Though all are not as bright as I would like them to be They fill my life with thanks for their diversity. I am a chameleon with many colours to show And everywhere I go, I have a Rainbow glow
