There once was a girl named Tristresse
who hated to wear any dress
unless it had chains,
black or blue as the rain
And Leo screaming at stars, I would guess

~by Tess
The colors in a sunset are
   the reds of fire twisting in the wild wind
   the oranges like a basketball bouncing up and down with the rhythm of a hand
   the yellows as bright as the front covers to the National Geographic Magazine
                           sitting on a table, waiting to be read.
Then there are the pinks of a crazy aunt's bright pink lipstick that she puts on every 5 minutes
There are the pinks around the clouds, the color a little girl's dream car should be.
There are the purples of the sundress on the lost little girl you saw at the mall.
The there's blue, clear blue, up and up and up
Blue as the vase your mother says never to touch or it will break - blue frosted glass.
And there seems to be sparkles, glitter covering the earth.
