Spanish English Colors
Spanish English Colors
DeDe A. Reid
A dozen ROJO flowers.
What kind of flowers could they be?
Twelve RED roses, beautiful to see.
NARANJA from the tree,
Squeeze some ORANGE juice for me.
ARAMILLO is the sun; shinning bright YELLOW as can be.
A variety of VERDE in the forest scheme you know.
We need the GREEN in the trees and grass, for the world to grow and grow.
AZUL in our heavenly skies; look and take your pick.
From baby BLUE to royal blue, ocean blues are mix.
VIOLETA rain sang with a guitar.
PURPLE Rain is a song; sung by a Prince, standing on stage as a star.
Ballerina in ROSA dressed from head to toes.
PINK is the color of her to-to and shoes, that she dances, cursee’, swirl and go.
On MARRON tables and chairs is where we sit and dine;
BROWN wooded furniture distinctively crafted so fine.
NEGRO is his suit and shoes, on their wedding day. BLACK is formal; and a businessman’s basic color, so they say.
BLANCO is the paper for the artist to start, what they want to create.
Be sure to write in the WHITE paper your signature and the date.
GRIS is your shadow that is somewhere in between, a GRAY concrete sidewalk, or a dream coming to fulfillment on a movie screen.
