Crimson

C rushed velvet of deep, intense color, crimson demands our attention 
R ich with Royal tones, it delves into the darker spectrums of purple red
I ntricate crimson dyes are made from raw kermes insects
M ysterious and exotic, a crimson "X" marks the spot to great treasure 
S umptuous and sophisticated, an elegant crimson gown flows forth
O h, to examine the exquisite luxury of a crimson colored rose
N othing can compare to crimson's passion, drama and luxurious beauty.

Thank you, John! I'll be on vacation soon, so probably won't write then. I'll be looking out for new poems from you :)
