It’s green for you and black for me Each color plays its part It’s green for you and black for me The icon of each heart Then I met you and you met me There at the waterfall How I touched you and you touched me We never touched at all Green for you has always been true But black for me’s too cold Your green awoke my dreaming soul Exposing color bold It’s green for you, now red for me A tender rose unfurled The green of you with the red of me Blossoming in the world

22. Ballad of Green & Red
It’s green for you and black for me Each color plays its part It’s green for you and black for me The icon of each heart Then I met you and you met me There at the waterfall How I touched you and you touched me We never touched at all Green for you has always been true But black for me’s too cold Your green awoke my dreaming soul Exposing color bold It’s green for you, now red for me A tender rose unfurled The green of you with the red of me Blossoming in the world
My attempt at a ballad in common meter for a prompt "Red".
