Black

  1. Black

    My favorite color in elementary school
    Until told it wasn’t a color
    An absence
    Or combination of all
    Still, Penny wears it like royalty
    500 pounds of black beauty
    rooting in the dog yard
    catching a few rays
    waiting for apples to fall
    a Russian sow in hog heaven

    1. couldn't think of a poem yesterday for yellow until I realized that a bee is yellow and black, so I wrote a bee poem for both.

      I could fill a book with poems about black though, since it is my favorite colour.

    like a black hole
    But his mind exploded,
    like a big bang

  4. “Black”

    It’s not black anymore but it was
    Before two yards of gravel
    Before removing stumps
    Before the patio
    Before new garden boxes
    Before I left it in the rain
