Grey
is boredom
Like
another cloudy day
Like
unblemished cement
Like
a blank screen
With
nothing to say

Raking the Leaves
The leaves every day
Making sure their lawn stays clean.
Some people wait until
All the leaves are down
They do the job once.
Some people leave
The leaves on the ground
Letting them decompose into the soil.
Which one is right?

Black is...
Like a tuxedo bow tie
Like a fancy dress
Like a shiny stretch limousine

February Trudges
February trudges along
In grey snow boots
Through the grey slush
On the grey sidewalk
Under a grey sky
The snow melts forming puddles on the floor.

Yellow is....
Waiting for a spring sunrise
Wearing the brightest shirt in my closet
Packing my possessions in a rental truck to new opportunity.

Yellow is...
Yellow is happiness
like time spent with my best friend
like a day in the summer sun
as warm as a kitten in my lap

Pink is...
Pink is admiration
as elegant as a party dress
as graceful as a ballerina on point
like a bouquet of carnations.

Green is...
Green is serenity
like a walk through the forest
like planting your own garden
as still as a undisturbed pond.

Silver is...
Silver is noise
like a clattering cymbal
like an off-key singer
as discordant as a chorus of cats.

Purple is ...
Purple is Royalty
like kings and queens at court
like mountains majesty
as rich as crushed velvet.

Indigo
Indigo is mystery
Like an ancient royal with a secret
Like a treasure forgotten in the ocean
As deep as the midnight sky
