If I Were Red

If I Were Red
If I were red I would be a good red. Not like an angry wildfire but a
gentle flickering red like a campfire. If I were red I would be bold like the
red in our precious flag. I would run true like the red blood that runs through the veins
of the soldiers who protect us. I would be red like the sweetness of a red strawberry and
yes I would have a little heat like a red pepper which spices up the food it seasons.
If I were red I would be happy because after all red is my favorite color.
