Long known as a color

That captivates the eye,

Your beauty is a blow to me

That makes me stop and sigh,

Not from pain or discomfort

Nor displeasure, no!

But from the sheer impact

Of  your beauty’s glow,

And when red is your chosen color

That I know you wore for me,

It fills me with such warmth inside

And makes me feel well pleased,

The color flows around you

Like a sunset on a hill,

It pleases me to see you in it

And gives me such a thrill,

Like black and gold and silver

It becomes you, oh, so well,

It touches me so deeply

That I just had to write and tell,

How wonderfully delicious

That color is to me,

And that you are as needful to me

As the very air I breathe. . .
