The Color of Love

What is the color of love?
An orange door propped open
Just waiting for you to come inside
A friendly invitation, forever welcoming

What is the color of love?
A blue truck parked out in front
A reminder they could leave, but don't
A place for extended goodbyes that turn to chatter

What is the color of love?
A red heart, sacrificial
Cut from paper beside burnt breakfast
Or bleeding out, salvation for you and for me


Prompt: image of a blue truck parked outside an orange building
Use one sound in your poem
