An abecedarian poem

Azure skies above, so clear,

Brush strokes bold, love and fear.

Canvas waiting, dreams to pour,

Dancing hues from the core.

Every color tells a tale,

Fleeting shadows, light, and pale.

Gleaming yellows, sunlit gold,

Hues of autumn, bold and old.

Ivory whispers, gentle, soft,

Jade greens, in the loft.

Kaleidoscope of life's embrace,

Lavender fields, tranquil grace.

Magenta sunsets, passion's fire,

Navy nights, desire.

Ochre earth, the artist's foundation,

Purple mists, imagination.

Quaint villages in serene landscapes,

Red passions, love escapes.

Silhouettes against the setting sun,

Turquoise waters, the day is done.

Umbra shades, mysteries untold,

Vermilion bright, and marigold.

Wistful scenes, in memory's hold,

Xanadu dreams, in colors bold.

Yellow dawns, new beginnings light,

Zephyr's breeze, into the night.
