If you could only see
One color
of the rainbow and beyond
What- how could you decide?
Red
anger, love, elmo and stop signs
i'd give you roses - not just a dozen- a flower shop full
Orange
fruit, sherbet, traffic cones and tigers
i could watch a billion sunsets- if you would just hold my hand?
Yellow
lemonade, fear, highlighters and dandelions
you are my sunshine, my only sunshine
Green
luck, mint, leprechauns, and grass
i'm envious of her, though her significance is debatable
Blue
rain, robin eggs, sky, and oceans
could i cry with you? i'm still not sure.
Purple
mountains, shadows, lilacs and royalty
i'll bake you a mulberry pie, dripping with juice and made with love- that eternal 'secret' ingredient
As for me, I'd choose brown.
Brown for honest earth, for rich dark chocolate, for tall reaching trees, and for coffee dark as night, hot as hell, strong as love.
For your smooth skin, warm and vibrant.
An inch away from mine, I wonder what it would feel like to kiss you, soft and sweet.
But I look away, laugh with my friend, watch the black evening outside.
And sigh.
What's your color?
