Ebony McDonaldExample Red Roses are red, the cap on my cup is too. Excitement is red all bubbling inside, When someone says "it's a surprise!" The valentines we exchange , the ribbon on my gift. Yes, those are all red. But there is more! On a hot summer day when a little breeze blows, The smell of smoke and fire is red. My favorite party dress with lace on the collar is all red. When I am angry, if someone calls me names, I am boiling with madness all through my body. Love is red too. All warm and sweet. These are all red, and mostly all sweet.

Drafting: Published Piece Blueis the color of the sky. Blue is the waves in the ocean crashing against the shore. Blue is the feeling I get sometimes when I’m sad. Blue is the icy color of glacial snow. Blue smells like freshly washed bed sheets. Blue tastes like blueberry Kool-Aid. Blue sounds like jets soaring through the clouds. Blue looks like the clear waters of the Hawaiian waters as I’m snorkeling. Blue feels like the snow on my face while I’m skiing at Mt. Bachelor. Blue makes me want to put on my coat, hat and gloves. Blue is my brother’s favorite color. • Read Write Think: Color Poems-Using the Five Senses to Guide Prewriting.
