There’s red there’s blue
There’s purple too

There’s orange there’s green
And millions in between

Every once in awhile
They make us smile

And bring joy to a day
They pass time away

Some are bold
Like black and gold

Some are shy
And get passed by

A few are bright
They light up the night

Others are dark
They sure leave a mark

Yet they are taken for granted
The odds are so slanted

That you will ignore
And walk right out the door

Forget they exist
And they will be missed

So enjoy the gift
If you’re catching my drift

See the reds and see the blues
Like you have nothing to lose

There’s red there’s blue
There’s purple too

There’s orange there’s green
And millions in between
