Color Of Love Poem by Lehlohonolo Selai

I could wear it red
Like cherries in their time
Or I could play dead
If colors fail to shape my love

I could gaze upon your neck
Long and brown your neck stands
Wide and sharp the eyes to my heart search
Yet no color on your neck suffices

I could try blue then
Seeing how often you gaze into the sky
Each time your ears overflow with my praises
And the sound of my affection

I have tried all colors I swear
Yet non manages to capture the taste of my love
I have tried all else my shy friend
But I love you is a color enough today
