KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | RAVEN

On By Mahvash K. M.In bookworm, kidlit, Kidsbooks, poetry, verse, writingLeave a comment 
Brightened by the glimmer of stars
I am the shadowy shade of the night 
I am the colour of the mysterious cat 
All you can see of her are her eyes 

I’m the colour of the scuttling beetle 
Of the bear that lives in a cave 
I’m the hue of the berries that he eats 
I’m like the panther, sleek and brave

I’m the colour of the birds that caw-caw
And watch you with a beady eye 
I’m like some of the cars that ply the road 
Not red nor blue nor white. 

I’m the colour of coffee and chimpanzees 
Maybe the colour of your backpack 
I’m deep, I’m dark, I have a magical spark 
I am the majestic colour BLACK.

Almonds and walnuts, cholocate and ginger
All share the colour that I am
Woodchucks that chuck wood, baskets and bagels
I am the colour of a beaver dam

I am the colour of the moose and the swaying camel
The ruddy duck and the wolverine,
Wood and toast, I am the colour of roast
The garden snail and the centipede

I am the colour of the giant fin whale 
And of your sweet little sun-kissed face
I may even be the colour of the desk on which 
All your favourite books are placed.

I am the colour of well loved teddy bears
Bearded dragons and kiwi birds
I am all around, from beige to BROWN
I am the beautiful colour of the earth

KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | GRAPEFRUIT

I am the colour of cherry blossoms 
And of the beautiful magnolia 
I’m like the onion, chopping which is no fun  
I’m also the sweet flesh of the guava 

Himalayan salt and the Pygmy seahorse  
Are the colour of your little tongue 
Which is the same as the river dolphin
I’m also the colour of bubble gum 

I’m the color of lychees and the guppy fish 
Turnips and the galah cockatoo 
I’m also the colour of some sea anemones 
They don’t have brains like me and you! 

I’m the colour of ripe raspberries 
Of the lotus and the carnation 
I’m the hints of health on your little face 
I am the delicate colour pink

KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | ARCTIC

I am the colour of cold winter days
When the snow falls in big flakes 
I’m the colour of the graceful swan
The seagull and the beluga whale 

I’m also half of a panda’s colours 
Of clouds and vanilla ice cream
Persian cats and cauliflowers 
And the sweet smelling jasmine

I’m the colour of your pearly teeth
That you brush well twice a day 
I’m the colour of rice and milk
And also of the polar bear 

I’m the shade of the coat of a billy goat 
Of dandelions and ice
I am the dazzle of daytime brightness 
I am the gleaming colour WHITE

KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | PERIWINKLE

I am the colour of the dancing peacock 
And also of the humpback whale 
I’m the delicate shade of a robin’s eggs
I am the colour of the racer snake 

I’m like the cresting and falling ocean 
I’m the shades of a summer sky
I’m the colour of the planet Neptune 
As it orbits up on high 

I’m the color of your little hands when 
They’ve held these Smarties too long 
I’m the colour of some millipedes, 
Of macaws and the moor frog

The emperor butterfly lifts off 
In lovely shades of this hue
The earth itself when seen from afar 
Is this incredible colour BLUE.

KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | STRAW

I am the colour of ripe corn fields 
And of the dancing daffodil 
I’m the colour of cheese, if you please 
And also of the pineapple 

The singing canary is the same shade
As the yolk of your breakfast egg 
Which is like the “get set” traffic light 
And the marmalade on your bread 

I’m the colour of little ducklings 
Of vanilla cake and sunflowers  
Some butterflies and jelly beans  
Of tennis balls and bananas 

I’m the colour of the fading bruise 
On your knee, as it gently mellows 
I’m the gleam in the sunlight healing you 
I am the shimmering colour YELLOW.

KIDSBOOKS – COLOURS | CHERRY

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.

LISTEN TO THE POEM BEING READ AT: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZSdeUChfe/?k=1
I’m the colour of fresh spring grass 
And the colour of peas in a pod
I’m also what many a parrot looks like 
And the colour a grasshopper’s got 

I’m the tint on crunchy, young apples
On honeydew, pears and grapes 
I’m the colour of the Nile crocodile 
and the slith-slithering grass snake 

I’m the colour of the beautiful jade stone
And the rustling leaves on trees 
Im also the the colour of your lovely face 
when you’ve had too much ice cream! 

I’m the colour of the deep dark woods,
The loveliest marble you’ve ever seen! 
I’m sometimes also called Mother Nature 
I am the beautiful colour GREEN
