Color Poem #30



while we wait we converse
briefly about the new fall
coat I’ve previously called
the color of yellow mustard

you say you don’t like
mustard the condiment
and so don’t want to think
of the coat which you do like
as being that color we decide
instead to call it gingko leaf
a gold we agree is a good
honest autumn color
