Color U

Color U; When is an orange eaten; I thought it was a color to be seen and not eaten; And what about blue; I thought it was a type of depression; What about you... I paint the sun yellow; Does it mean that it's a coward; What about brown, is it sound why is it the color of the ground; Color U; What am I to do; Purple means royal does it mean that I'm a King; And red is the color, that flows through my veins; NO it's not No it isn't; Blood becomes red when it's fed with oxygen; I am lead to believe that I color U What am I to do; When lavender smells so good and it calms the soul; What am I to do; When black is the darkness that holds the seed of light; Tan you understand is the shade of the perfect man; While white is the color of light; What am I to do; I am lead to believe that I color U written by James Edward Lee Sr.(c)2017 July 6 2017
