The Color of Love

The triumph of the redbreast
sweetly singing in the morning,
the torch of autumn, bold,
effulgent crimson, richly glows.

Sunset's fiery testament,
you in bright scarlet raiment,
sparkling in the starlight like a ruby, 
and blushing like a red, red rose!

Red sings with passion all through this verse. It's a color that is so much a part of me and you bring it to life in this wonderful verse. Luv, Elizabeth P S where's my soop male? It's not there and I can't do without it now you've told me!
