Excerpt from Why Orange? by Mary O’Neill
"Orange is a tiger lily,
A carrot,
A feather from a parrot,
A flame,
The wildest color you can name."
Autumn by Rainer Maria Rilke
The leaves fall, fall as from far,
Like distant gardens withered in the heavens;
They fall with slow and lingering descent.
And in the nights the heavy Earth, too, falls
From out the stars into the Solitude.
Thus all doth fall. This hand of mine must fall
And lo! the other one:—it is the law.
But there is One who holds this falling
Infinitely softly in His hands.The Colour Orange by Sean Achilleos
The colour orange speaks
In the dark sky their lights I saw
For the good of mankind
Not for All mankind
But for the man who is kind
When Sunset Meets Ocean by Immortality
Sunset kisses,
the ocean’s skin.
Orange light cradles,
in the waves' arms.
And the sky’s darkness,
finds a home,
in the ocean's heart.
orange ya glad we’re reclaiming this lovely color? 😉
