I never liked the color orange
It reminded me of illness
A sour break in time
And caution signs
That tell you
How to go about your life
I never liked the color orange
The word seemed
Weird to me
Unnatural in the way
It felt and
Trickled through my teeth
I never liked the color orange
Until you changed my way
You showed me life
Behind the break
Bursting from
Leaves in the fall
And how the caution
Faded as the fiery
Passion grew strong
Now the letters
Roll off my tongue
And seem rightly so
My love's not a sultry red
Nor a pastel pink,
No my love burns bright
Like a lively hue of
Orange.
