Rainbow Relationship

Crimson, garnet, rose

My blushing cheeks are an overflowing glass of merlot

Your tender lips continually add to the burgundy waterfall

An elated smile spreads like the red tint of a ripening tomato

Amber, honey, tangerine

My stomach flutters with the wings of Monarch butterflies

Your gentle hands churn their fierce, fiery quivering

A balmy giggle bubbles up like orange lava from a volcano

Citrine, daffodil, lemon

My heart whistles the songs of a thousand lighthearted canaries

Your laughing eyes draw out the sweet, butterscotch sound

Happiness floods through me like warm, yellow sunshine

Emerald, pear, shamrock

My body is a tree shivering in the crisp breeze

Your trailing fingertips cause the mossy leaves to tremble

Passion consumes me like green weeds overcome a garden

Arctic, berry, sapphire

My mind is the infinite sky–– quietly calm above the earth

Your strong arms push the clouds from the cerulean scene

Hope appears like your tattoo cries to the blue corn moon

Azure, denim, tanzanite

My crinkling nose is a plump, ripened boysenberry

Your raised eyebrow further scrunches the berry fruit

Joy moves me like indigo Baptisias swaying in the wind

Amethyst, lavender, plum

My roaming, wandering lips nip softly at your neck

Your tempting scent will always taste better than eggplant

Serenity keeps me in place like a well-tucked, purple blanket
