Title: Shades Of Cream 

Before I begin, this poem was based on a paint chip palette. The colors on the palette were: Fuzzy Unicorn, Ash, Gotta Have It, Cuppa Coffee, Locomotion, Warrior, and Ground Coffee. All the colors are from Glidden Paint. 


A single fuzzy unicorn 

Standing amidst the ash clouds 

"Gotta have it all," right? 

That's what you had said, 

A cuppa coffee in hand 

The locomotion of the morning breeze 

Tousling your hair 

A warrior, ready to face it all 

When suddenly, your ground coffee spills 

The warrior falls in battle 

And I realize 

Surrounded by the ash of gunfire 

The unicorn has shed a tear
