spontaneous2

this is a poem i once wrote for ben and also i entered it for a poetry competition at school and it won a prize! yay!


Red is for apples, the sweetest of May
That fall to the ground in pure disarray
Orange is fire, the flames and decay
That char all the anger and keep it at bay
Yellow like pollen and the sun and its beams
Your hair and the stardust and gold diamond rings
 
Green like the limes that are tingly and sour
Chilled and refreshing ju
st like a spring shower 
Blue are your eyes that match the sea and the sky
Solemn and calm as the hours go by
Indigo is promising, just like the wind
That whispers and carries hope on its wings 
Violet like velvet; the caress of your skin
That soothes and embraces all that we’ve been
To you and to me, to the world at our feet
To forever and beyond, as one and complete
