"Colorful Life" by April Peles
I am from a life filled with many colors,
From the I am from my energetic black and white dog named Bernie,
From the orange, blue, and yellow rings he chews on.
I am from the varsity cheerleading team dressed in red and blue,
From the sidelines on Friday nights cheering on the red rubberish track.
I am from my golden blonde hair sister,
From the green palm trees where she lives in Hawaii.
I am from a house of a back yard with yellowing green grass,
From a pool filled with 15,000 gallons of refreshing crystal blue water.
I am from a colorful garden of a variety of vegetables,
From red, juicy, ripped tomatoes, and bright green, orange, and red sweet peppers.
I am from a house of coloration of sweets and sugars,
From rich red velvet cupcakes with vanilla icing and foaming root beer floats.
I am from a life full of color,
That changes as often as a kaleidoscope.
