Orange

Orange is the colour.

It is the sun melting
In to the Horizon
As a Summer day ends,
Freshly cut fruit,
Butterfly wings.

It is the leaves in Autumn,
Scattered on the ground,
A pumpkin face,
Glowing in the dark.
The fins of a fish at the fair.

It roars in the fire's flames,
And glints brightly
On a jeweled tree.
The carrot on Christmas eve,
The skin of a persimmon.

It is a bright spring flower,
Lilies and tulips in bloom,
A bell pepper, an ice lolly.
Orange is the colour of smiles,
The colour of joy.
