Color Problems

Colors, Colors

Everywhere

In your eyes

And your hair

Red, Blue, Yellow

The Primary Three

Are often the first

We are taught

Then comes green, orange and purple

Offspring and Secondary

Look a rainbow!

Sing and color

What we do in school

It’s easy!

Can’t you see?

Until you return

Then it starts

Temperature

Saturation

Intensity

Hue

Color theory

Complements

Contrasts

Lighting

Shadows

It was all so simple before

Red, yellow, blue,

Orange, green, purple

Black for lines, white for clouds and snow

Burning

Dodging

It was all so simple

Why can’t it be simple?
