The Color Pink - A Poem About Colour

Pink


Note: Some years ago we - a group of four - used to play a game where one of us threw a word onto the table and we then penned a poem within a given time frame - if I remember correctly it was about ten minutes and the above poem came about as a result being given the word "Pink" to play with...lots of fun if you are so inclined....




A rosy hue

The colour of a flower

A lady’s bower


A shower of Spring

Through a rainbow mist

A shepherd’s delight

Softened with white


A lover’s tryst

blinded by rose coloured glasses

Passes

In a hot pink haze.


Skin pink

Scharpirelli

A Shocking Pink

Colour of a belly

Birth and blood.


Sunburnt noses

A bowl of roses

Even tiny little toesies


We’re in the Pink

A palette of colour in one hue.

and most definitely not

a psychedelic blue.

Lovely, and I'm pleased to know (thanks to Google Ad Sense) that I can purchase a pink stethoscope. I'm sure that's just what you had in mind when you wrote this!

Excellent. And to think you came up with that in ten minutes. Better than the Aerosmith song 'Pink' I must say. I'm your fan!
