The green of the moss, of the reed,of the grass,
the red of my skin, of the ladybug's back,
the blue of your belly, of afternoon's sky,
the brown of the bank, of the elder duck's eye.
The white of the swans, of the kingfisher's eggs,
the cream of cocoons, of the whippoorwill's legs,
the silver of trout, of damselfly's wings
the beautiful colors of beautiful things!
