I like you in purple,
purple flower fields
We're safe in our meadow,
but they're nipping at our heels
I like you in blue,
blue swirling monsoons
Just think of happy thoughts:
puppies, kiwis and raccoons
I like you in yellow,
yellow playground slides
It's too hot in here,
but it's a place to hide
I like you in green,
green stalks of bamboo.
Puffs of smoke and pocket change,
help me lace my shoes
I like you in red,
red blankets by the river
twilight, moonlight, Starlight,
waking up with shivers
I like you in purple,
purple lazy sighs
Sleepyheads with heavy limbs
and guilty, smiling eyes
