Red Like blood on white tile A fair maiden's lips Your hair last summer Blue Like a choking man A child's eyes glist'ning Your fav'rite color Yellow Like weathered parchment My mother's long hair Your car's bright paint job Green Like moss on a rock The leaves on a tree The passport you left Purple Like bruises on skin Orchids on a vine Your prom date's necktie Orange Like fire cleansing all The light on my porch The sun on your face Brown Like earth we'll return A mug of cocoa And some sourdough bread White Like pale, frigid skin My face when I saw What you have become Black Like life without you A life without you My life without you

Colors in Threes
Red Like blood on white tile A fair maiden's lips Your hair last summer Blue Like a choking man A child's eyes glist'ning Your fav'rite color Yellow Like weathered parchment My mother's long hair Your car's bright paint job Green Like moss on a rock The leaves on a tree The passport you left Purple Like bruises on skin Orchids on a vine Your prom date's necktie Orange Like fire cleansing all The light on my porch The sun on your face Brown Like earth we'll return A mug of cocoa And some sourdough bread White Like pale, frigid skin My face when I saw What you have become Black Like life without you A life without you My life without you
