I am brown, mixed from yellows, reds, and blues
Vibrant underneath but hidden from your views.
My colour brown can change within my hues
Some dark, some light, depends on what I choose.

Blended correctly many shades you'll see
Warm or cool my undertones can be.
Chocolate, beige, or tan to name just three 
So many browns; and all of them are me.

I'm really versatile, in great demand
Because my colour spreads across our land.
