Color Coded

What is the color of a happy day
Is it rainbows all the way
…Is it beautiful hues
...all lavenders and blues

What can be the color of love
Is it bright like the sunshine above
Is it a fiery red or an icy blue name
…very much like the color of pain

What is the color of loyalty
Is it the white interspaced
...with the scarlet bars
and blue with white stars

Show me the color of lonely
Is it a misty grey…
nondescript like the fog
…floating over the bay

What is the color of pain
Is it a red fiery flame
…an icy freezing blue
or a color with no name

What is the color of blood
Is it the same color and hue
…in mud...as it is in sand
Does it change with the land

What is the color of death
...Is it the last color to request
Black are the colors rolled into one...
the color of silence when life is done

What is the color of tears
The same over the years
...clear as warm rain
falling ever and again
