Gray

By Ryan Bogue
Shelburne Community School, Grade 5

Gray is cement hard and cold.
Gray is elephants with floppy ears.
Gray is clouds fluffy and fog.
Gray is sadness alone and nothing.
Gray is noon blocking out the suns warm rays.
Gray is the lonely breeze chilling all in its grasps.
Gray is the tiny mouse living in small gaps of a house.
Gray is the color of those old cartoons.
Gray is the color of sorrow.
Gray is the color of a rainy day.
Gray is the color of stingrays.
