More Metaphor

Sharpening Pencils

A color poem by Amelia Shoemaker


Red is sharpening pencils

Violet is playing tag

White is sliding down the slide

Pink is chewing bubble gum

Sky blue is swinging high

Orange is running so fast it’s on fire! 

Yellow is walking in the warm sunshine

Gold is singing shiny and bright

Brown is chirping in an apple tree

Silver is whistling piercing silvery whistles

I want complete crashes out of the system and

Intelligent planets for access to nachos


Her humanoid avatar plays microwave dragon by line giga 


Of my squirrel, 
whose rest cycle is mossly, 
watches green gentle thick flowers
