A Poem

I was introduced to this today. I like it!

My Many Colored Days
By Dr. Seuss

Some days are yellow
Some days are blue.
On different days
I'm different too.

You'd be surprised
How many ways I change
On different colored days.

On bright red days
How good it feels
To be a horse
And kick my heels.

On other days I'm other things.
On bright blue days
I flap my wings.

Some days of course
Feel sort of brown.
Then I feel slow
And low, low down.

Then comes a yellow day
And, wheel
I'm a busy, buzzy bee.

Gray day...Everything is gray.
I watch.
But nothing moves today.

Then all of a sudden
I'm a circus seal!
On my orange days
That's how I feel.

Green days.
Deep deep in the sea
Cool and quiet fish
that's me.

On purple days
I'm sad.
I groan.
I drag my tail.
I walk alone.

But when my days are happy pink.
It's great to jump
And just not think.

Then come my black days.
Mad.
And loud.
I howl.
I growl at every cloud.

Then comes a mixed-up day.
And wham!
I don't know who or what I am!

But it all turns out all right, you see.
And I go back to being...me.
