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

(from a random meme)

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

That violet has speed
That fast rose does not
Depending on measurements done in one spot

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...
