The Colors Inside

The Colors Inside

A Poem by Niko Timmy
"

For a contest. What do you think when you hear "Crayon box"?

"
Open the lid
look inside

Red, purple, orange

Bright, dark
Sharp, dull

Yellow, green, blue

There are so many
so many to chose from

Brown, gold, silver

Maybe chose your favorite color
draw a pretty picture

Black, pink, beige

Then put it away and pick out another
a completely different image comes to mind

Lime, peach, gray

Each new color
brings out a whole new world

Turquoise, magenta, white

Or a whole new artist
In just one small Crayon Box

This was for a contest. This isn't usually the type of poetry I write, but I thought I'd give it a try. Please tell me what you think!

Very nice. I think it should win the constest! :) It's different and it's unique because it was written by you. If someone else had the idea in mind they still couldn't write it quite the same. Good job! Keep on writing!
