BRIAN & ANGELA

N ATURE\'S RAINBOW ~ COLLABORATION MAXINE & BRIAN

 

 

RED ~ Colour Nature uses to warn

I guess we learn that the day we\'re born 

The Fly Agaric ~ a fungus ~ bright red

Eat one and you are stone cold DEAD !

 

ORANGE ~ So warm it absorbs the Sun

Over the meadows we\'re free ~ we run

Nature\'s colours ~ bright in the golden sunshine

In crisp green fields lying ~ our souls untwine !

 

YELLOW ~ So cool and very mellow

When I was a kid ~ fave colour for Jello !

Daffodils they always make me sing

Bright yellow harbinger of Spring

 

GREEN ~ The colour of healthy grass

Joyful play ~ time to chill ~ please let it last

True essence of beauty ~ uplifting green

Kids let loose in the open ~ with joy they scream !

 

BLUE ~ The colour of Sea & Sky

Both blue ~ I often wonder WHY ?

Maybe GOD knew ~ our most fave hue

Would be a ~ Paler Shade of BLUE !

 

INDIGO ~ On those Bunting Birds

Singing cool harmonies ~ just to be heard

Indigofera radiates tropical height 

Drawn into vibrant elegant sight ! 

 

VIOLET ~ Colour of ROYAL & DIVINE

Bright in my garden ~ the Violets shine

Sassy Ladies with purple make-up and hair

Purple a colour for Real Men\'s nightwear !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Maxine & Brian

 

A Collaboration Poem is written by two Poets

who write alternate verses. To produce a balanced

Poem the subject of the verses must complement

each other and result in a coherent whole !  Form

is also important and each verse must scan and 

have the same number of lines and rhyme pattern.

Lines only need to be co-syllabic in blank verse ~ OK.
