What is Red?

By James McCarthy

Red is the colour of my bed
And a head too.
A flamingo reminds me of bingo,
An angry, red fire extinguisher.
A red Christmas bow.
A hard-working pencil or crayon,
Complimenting a copy.
A robin red breast sitting in a tree
Over a couple kissing
A lovely ladybird living on a leaf.
A juicy red apple.
This is red to me.
