Shades of pink
May 30, 2017
I run away from the bright bougainvillea
The light but dark festive fifties pink
true pink posy surround the pathways
running past the frosted watermelon patch
through the field of blush wild carnation
fly away like an airy pink balloon
from the distance
looks like the lightest fawn lily

This is called a paint chip poem. All the wierd names of shades of pink are real names of paints, for walls.
