The Rainbow Girl

The rainbow girl,

Walking through town with a smile

on her face,

bringing color to the world.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing RED.

The color of her bright lipstick,

and the color of her heart.

She had a big heart,

always sharing it with everyone.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing ORANGE

Her favorite popsicle flavor.

And the color of the sky,

when she finally left your house.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing YELLOW.

There were always rays of sunlight

following her.

It was also the natural color of her hair,

always pulled up into a ponytail.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing GREEN.

The color of the grass as

she ran through barefoot.

Saving water, Helping animals,

Not polluting, Recyling,

the color of her mindset.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing BLUE.

Splashing through the waves

during the hottest days of the summer.

It was the color of her calm mood,

she was never upset or angry.

 

The rainbow girl,

bringing PURPLE.

The color of

the grapes and plums

she would sell at our door

on Sundays,

for a dollar each.

 

Ask her what her favorite color is,

she’d say clear,

Letting all the colors

shine through.

An idea I got from a conversation with a friend.

Beautiful, colourful poem, excellent! Love how each stanza tells a story on its own with imagery. And the last stanza is the icing on the cake :)

I like the idea behind this. And the colored words and how you expressed each color. It made me think of Miranda for some reason.
