A Color Thing
a poem by M. G. Hughes
Isthere such thing as a color thing?
Orwas I just born under a willow tree?
Ilook around and see my town
Copperand gold and brown and ivory
Cometalk to me brother
Cometalk to me sister
Cometalk to me father
Cometalk to me mother
Isthere such thing as a color thing?
Orwas I just born during spring?
Ilook by my side
Isee you smile
Ilook behind
Isee my no faced twin on the ground
Lord!May I ask why?
Isthere such thing as a color thing?
Or was I just born where the mourning doves sing?
