Erica Larcombe 4/24/17English-Pd:5 Mrs.Gennosa What Is Teal

Teal, is it blue or is it green?Teal, the color of the sky and the seasIt’s the color of the crown on the peas And the old moldy peas.

Teal, is the color of the tropical oceansAnd the color of devotion It symbolizes powerIt’s the petal on that flower And the water in the shower.

Teal, the water that rolls upon the caribbean sandAnd the knitted glove on my handThe color of glitter when it shimmersAnd my eyes when they glimmer.

Teal, the icing on the cakeTeal, the flowing lakeAnd the fishes who swim near and farIt’s the color of a shining shooting star.

Teal, the color of tranquility and happinessTeal, the color of the worldA color that can change your frown upside down.
