I’m the outside arch of the rainbow
And the colour of tropical sunsets,
I’m the colour of sweet scented roses 
I’m like the seeds of the pomegranate 

I’m the colour of the lovely ladybird 
Of lobsters and flamingoes 
The colour of rubies and autumn leaves 
Of watermelons and tomatoes 

I’m the colour of the fiery garnet 
And the hue of fresh strawberries 
the colour of some skittles and rambutan 
And of playfully dancing poppies 

I’m the coppery glow of the planet Mars
Shining down from the sky overhead 
I’m the colour of your cheeks when you beam with joy 
I am the radiant colour RED.
