Colors: a Poem by Raven Dove

Colors
By Raven Dove
Her Favorite color was red
While mine was green
I picked her a couple roses but still she couldn’t see
I bought her a red wagon to show my love for her
But she couldn’t see the red I gave to her
While she was getting gifts in the color of blue
I was wondering what I should do
I stripped myself of all the red
And then she cried for me all the way to my death.
Wow! Your poem as a Lois Lowry feel to it.
