Colors
Alina Moroz
Pink as bubblegum,
light as a rose,
beautiful as a sunset,
setting down at the end of the day
Light blue as the summer sky,
the blue of a boy’s favorite color,
as blue as the ocean’s wave crashing against the rocks,
blue like the eyes of a Siamese cat
Red of the autumn’s leaves
falling from the tree,
the red roses from my mother’s garden
the beautiful bright red of Christmas
Yellow of the sun like a sunflower
the multiple color rainbows after an afternoon rain,
the bright colors of spring and summer
Every day we see the beautiful colors
that nature has given us,
the beautiful mixes of oranges, pinks, yellows, and purples
of a sunset
We see different kinds of beautiful colors each day,
thanking nature for its gift
We are all just trying to find some color in this black and white world

Color Poem
Find a color/paint sample card, or just pick a color in the room, and think of how you would define that color – this will probably result in head-scratching and questions, so try to think of what day of the week your color is, what food would your color be? Season? Emotion? Is it a hot or cold color? What activity is your color? Also, think of how you would describe your color in the same way you would describe a person.
