MM Generali School 3rd & 4th Grade

Green...
like clovers, like the grass blowing in a breeze,
like eggs and ham, like boogers.
It sounds like a honking horn, like a fight, like dancing Leprechauns,
like a slurp.
Green tastes wobbly like Jell-O, like bubble gum, like fruit roll-ups,
like the Grinch.
It feels soft like cat fur and baby bunnies,
hard like a limo.
Green would jump like a kangaroo,
it would grow green toenails,
it would scribble green on shoes.
Green...
Blue...
like the ocean, like the sky, like a swimming pool in summer.
It sounds like a baby chipmunk being born, like water dripping,
like the blowing fire of a hot air balloon,
like an army tank.
Blue smells like a blueberry pie, like roses blooming,
like armpits, like fresh air
and it feels smooth like babies skin.
Blue would swim, it would eat bugs,
it would do a silly dance.
Blue...
