Green

If I were to put crayon to page
Perhaps that crayon would be sage.
The same colour sage that my eyes see
In my mirror looking back at me.
If a crayon I would be,
I'd be deep sage ...like the sea.

I really liked this. I would probably be that mixed up crayon that did not know what color he was! This was wonderful.
