The Color Red
Red is the peck of love's kiss on your collar
bead of blood creeping from a graze
fever racing to your cheeks when livid
char of sun scorching your skin at the beach
crunch of your teeth piercing an apple
delicate velvet of a rose in bloom
psalm of a bird at the window
metallic taste coating your tongue once bitten
flutter of your heart when caressed
Red is your most potent emotions
