Color Poem

Green is a meandering creek through a lush grassy valley Red is hot with devilment Mauve is a soft and squirming newborn's cheeks Brown is basically awesome Blue is cool as summer's love Lavender is a soft and fragrant blossom. Sunshine is orange warmth with yellow and red sprinkles Mauve is girly pink and yellow locks of delicate hair Black absorbs and white reflects Though ebony and ivory live side by side in poetic harmony! Inspired by "Yellow" written by David McCord
