When I Mix Colours Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan
When I Mix Colours
Since I paint too, I'll tell you the results
when I mix several colours with each other
red and blue makes a purple hue
red and white
makes pink true
blue and yellow
you will get a green flow
red and yellow
you'll get royal orange
white and black
makes grey for a change
red and green
becomes brown as you've never seen
brown and yellow
results in autumnal yellow
crimson red and titanium white
och such a happy tide
this must be the Indonesian National Flag
Interesting poem. For painting one must mix the right colors and for poetry one must chose the right words to bring the desired effects. You have worked with both.
Thank you a very lot, dear Mrs. Savita, your precious support means very much to me
A colourful poem. I felt it very interesting how you arrived at your target, your fatherland's national flag
