SCARLET-

Scarlet is the nature, 
The color of birth red
 in essence, cousins 
To the Browns if so, 
Soul essence be red
Place in a hierarchy
 in the royal Crown.  
The rainbow contains 
Scarlet and scarlet 
Contains oxygen as 
The oxygen turns 
From clear to red 
Auburn vessel 
Auburn soul is
       ...Scarlet
