Colours

Red means the sun in my drawing book....
Red means the rose carefully preserved in my "Fountainhead",
Red means the colour of a heart....
Red means the bloodshed in Nandigram...
Yes I have grown up
and a lot I have lost........

Black is the kiwi shoe polish on my school shoes....
Black is the colour of her eyes...
Black is a lovely movie....
Black Friday has been censored.....
Black used to be a crayon in my crayon box....
Somewhere.....
The black crayon is lost.....

Blue means the sky around the red sun...
Blue means the transition from pencils to pens at school....
Blue means Indian cricket....
Blue means "yeh dil mange more"....
Blue is your guitar.....But that music
Somewhere is lost....

This poetry is deeply inspired by "the guy with a blue guitar" and is to be cotd....
