MY TRUE COLOURS

PUCE
PUCE IL ANIMUS!
PUCE
PUCE IL ANIMUS!
I'm sure that you will all deduce
That Rinkly Rimes is quite a goose,
Picking on the colour 'puce'!
Puce!

'Puce' is the French word for a flea!
Fleas have such audacity!
Biting people on the knee!
Puce!
*
They pounce on people in the night!
They leave a mark! An ugly sight!
They fill with blood each time they bite!
Puce!
*
And when a flea is fully fed
From our blood, where we have bled,
The blood's a sort of brownish red;
Puce!
*
And yet, as you will see below,
The colour has a pleasant glow.
(I think that's all you need to know!)
Puce!

So you chose PUCE - you deserve a flea in your ear!!! Must admit, though, that's a nice little collection. Mine's up.
We just had to check out your puce, Rinkly Rimes!
We love your collage of puce!
Love ya lots
Maggie and Mitch
Well done!
And for your next suggestion!
Oh Puce! For some reason, stating that this is a very cute poem, conflicts with the image in my mind. You're good!
Yes, "quite a goose" for sure. ;) But, I must admit it was fun and I even learned something. Love the poem!
I hate fleas.
