RED SKIES AND SUNSETS

We love the color red
It comes in many shades

I think tomato, fire truck
Lighthouse and suspenders

There are many more examples
But those came to mind quickly

My mind does not filter out
The non-essential but
Comes to grip with reality

The flag red could be thrown in
Respectfully, or course

Fire hydrants or fire trucks
Both touch us the same

Red buffalo plaid conjures
Up bygone days

Red sails in the sunset
Really are a canvas white

My mind spins
Little Red Riding Hood
Wasn’t a hood, but
Wore a red garment

Many flowers are red
Many shades just like
Fifty shades of gray

Santa Claus just came to town
His outfit is red 
With trim of assorted colors

Now he is for sale
Fifty percent off

Valentine’s Day is close
Red, heart shaped boxes of candy
Will be looked for and sought after

Red is an interesting color
Many things to be considered

My favorite of all is
Red skies and sunsets
How about you?
