My favorite color is red
But if I'm being honest
I am a shade of light blue
An anti-solidarist
I am calm, not sad
I worry but can be content
I flow like the aqua-hued ocean
Always have the purest intent
The sky is my serenity
I am easy-going
Birds are comforted by my presence
But I'm capable of growing
I love to be a passionate red
Perhaps, I am deep down inside
I'm blue and red; Purple!
Then again, why should I decide?
Who says I must be one color?
Who says I can't be blue and red?
I can change, depending on the mood
From a peaceful blue to a fiery red.
Thanks for reading my poem. Check out my other musings.

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

What is the Taliban's plan to rule the world?
So, the Taliban and Al-Qaeda are still pretty tight, even though the Taliban promised they wouldn't let terrorists hang out in Afghanistan anymore. Turns out, Al-Qaeda might be using Afghanistan as a secret clubhouse to rebuild their crew, and the Taliban is probably cool with it. In other news, the Taliban banned Opium, but apparently Meth is the new trendy drug in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, women in Afghanistan are having a rough time under Taliban rule. No school, no work, and good luck seeing a doctor. Al-Qaeda has been busy setting up safehouses, training camps, and a whole network of fighters across Afghanistan. It's like they're building their own little terrorist Airbnb. Some Al-Qaeda members have been granted positions within the Taliban's administration, establishing loyalty between the groups. The Taliban says they want to rebuild Afghanistan, and they're hoping China will help them out. Speaking of China, they might throw some money at Afghanistan without even asking about human rights. I'm sure that won't backfire at all. The Taliban and other extremist groups have vocalized support for Hamas, but this should not be misinterpreted as support for all Palestinians. Meanwhile, the world's spies are keeping a close eye on Afghanistan, waiting to see what kind of shenanigans the Taliban and their terrorist besties get up to next.

Yes! Why be one thing? But, like you, I think I might be blue with red rising.
Lovely personal revelation, great words
My favorite color is blue.
My favourite colour is red too! Too often I find myself blue and I then strive to be red. Loved your poem!
