Ordinary Orange

Citrus scented sprayed bouquets
	blend peach with mango smoothies
	tempting tongue with apricot flavorings.

Lay the salad colors over the green
	with crisp robust carrots
	butternut squash and orange blossom honey. 

It no longer holds true, 
orange is not ordinary
	its the new black you know
	as tangerine dreams take hold.
