You were all the shades of purple Violet petals blowing in the wind Mauve smashed grapes between toes Plum like bruises on bent backs You melted into the hues of blue Cornflower sky vibrant in July Teal waves bombarding the coast Navy like jeans with grass stained knees You faded into the tones of green Olive leaves on thick trunked trees Lime frogs hopping on branches Chartreuse like fresh cut kiwi You gave into the tints of yellow Golden sunrises on the horizon Khaki canvases stretched thin Canary like lemon drops on tongues You were all the shades of orange Tangerine bonfires at midnight Rusty nails twisted into planks Amber like dripping honey bee hives You darkened into all the hues of red Cherry slick tabletops in a diner Rosy cheeks flushed from the cold Pomegranate like bricked suburban houses You waned into the tones of pink Magenta cotton candy stuck to lips Coral reefs blooming on the seafloor Peach like skin after a day at the beach You disappeared into the tints of white Powdery snow on concrete ground Cream goosebumps on silky thighs Ivory like teeth through pursed mouths And in sharp contrast, became black Obsidian rocks at the volcanic base Charcoal soot stuck under fingernails Onyx like the deepest darkest night
