Red, White and Blue

by Michelle S   Aug 20, 2016


What is the first thing that comes to mind?
Red, white and blue so easily disguised
Do you think of the American Flag?
The 4th of July or Memorial Day?
Let us take a look at a different to analyze
Breaking colors down to a different meaning

Red associated with romance and roses
Women who love them in their vases
The opposite spectrum is a sign that stops
Red lights cause a moment to pause

Red attracts and known for negativity as well
Color of Satan burning in hell
Stop lights ran, police pursuing red cars noticed
Highest ticketed vehicle, can lead to arrest

Red your favorite color as people perceive
An angry person, abusive tendencies
Yet, Valentines Day red the color of love
Colors are merely perceived by one

White the color of purity and innocence
White oleanders can kill in one incidence
Play pool the white ball chases the others
Yet in the end, you scratch, game over

Fresh snow so beautiful and white it shimmers
Cocaine the white, destroying others
White only worn after Easter is the rule
Judged by those you never knew

White clouds fluffy in the sky
Relaxes our souls and state of mind
We imagine God, the angels dressed in white
While the favorite color of those who disguise

Disguise who and what they are
While others judge and think they are a bore
Opposite analogy of just one color
Receptive to some, othes a bother

The final color brighter than all
Blue is perceived as beauty or hell
Abuse causes bruises that turn to blue

Tomorrow the sky now absent of clouds
Sun shining brightly now
Yet, memories of harm cloud your brain
Water flowing down your head as it rains

Blue water in the ocean can be so calming
Yet inside our minds we feel as though we are drowning
Blonde hair and blue eyes, men find so attractive
Yet the eyes speak the truth, forget the reaction

Depression is known as the blue personality
But sometimes this color awakes our understanding
No matter your favorite color of three
Take a look at the rainbow, the spectrum we perceive

Open your mindset to different thoughts
Take some time and look around
Just three colors make you think
A different way, new mindset is that you seek

Open your eyes to the world all around
Soon you will feel your feet planted in solid ground
