Rainbow- Meenakshi Mohan

Colours of the rainbow

Red ...............Passion

With a few lines

I turn up everyday

Is it a poem?

Orange.........bittersweet 

You may ask about 

You’re the judges, aren’t you?

You write comments

Yellow..........lemony

Crisp, succinct 

Since when briefness is a fault

To carry content?

Green...........acidic

Places are distant

They never part from my mind

Beloved are sick

Blue............sadness

Father and uncle

Are both under its shackles 

Covid trapped them

Indigo.....wisdom

You do understand 

Now the need for the shortness

I’d like deeper poems 

Violet..... sweetness 

Feelings hurt too much

Long Words are insufficient 

I know your  kindness
