shades


purple,  yellow, green and pink

colours of all shades being swallowed in the sink

grey, orange, white and blue

noone is quite as dark as you

from window to window

from smiling to tears

nothing filled with colour is what it appears

translucent. clear. bright and dark.

sadly my mind isn't as cheerful as the park

looking around my kitchen, i see

 a bin, grey and half the size of me.

I see an oven as dirty as pigs

My reaction time is as fast as a fox digs.

orange foxes. they are fierce

white rabbits. they are cute

black dogs. they big

bad guys. they shoot.

bang! red comes spilling out his jaw.

i can see his plain white jaw

colour is bright and creative.

shades however can be dark and desisive
