WHAT IS ORANGE?

What is Orange?

Mary O’Neill

Orange is a tiger lily,

A carrot,

A feather from

A parrot,

A flame,

The wildest color you can name.

Saying good-bye

In a sunset that

Shocks the sky.

Orange is brave

Orange is bold

It's bittersweet

And marigold.

Orange is zip

Orange is dash

The brightest stripe

In a Roman sash.

Orange is an orange

Also a mango.

Orange is the music

Of the tango.

Orange is the fur

Of the fiery fox,

The brightest crayon

In the box.

And in the fall

When the leaves are turning

Orange is the smell

Of a bonfire burning
