Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Depending on their velocity relative to you

My dragons did a version of that little ditty once..

Rosa ain't red.
Violets ain't blue.
Colour nomenclature in human linguistics is weirdly related to cultural and temporal norms which dictate both which colours are seen and how they are classified into related spectral bands.
And so are you.



Dragon poetry seems to follow different rules...
